Dewar Cr

Great day in the mountains. The snowpack is still fairly shallow (100-120 cm @ 2200 m) and in general the lower pack is faceted and weak. We experienced some whumphing and cracking on a layer of surface hoar down ~ 30 cm in protected areas, and saw where some short cut slopes had slid on this layer during the last storm. Some wind affect in the high alpine otherwise the surface was soft. Some moist snow on solar aspects in the afternoon. A few Size 1 loose sluffs on south aspects but no recent slab avalanches observed.
