Weather: Calm cold and Humid up high

Snowpack

Snowpack: Skiing 30 degrees or less and still whumphing in certain areas of the snowpack on the uphill .. our lovely persistant slab issue I suspect. Widespread faceting and surface hoar:Faceted snow refers to snow grains within the snowpack that have transformed into larger, angular grains. Facets have weak bonds with neighboring snow grains. If you don’t care about the consequences , get beyond yourself and consider the danger you put others in when you need to be rescued.
