Cold, snowy, not much wind

Snowpack

maybe 18" - 30" deep with 6" of 0.5 - 1 mm facets at the bottom(big surprise huh?) with 12" - 18" new low density(I'm guessing 10%) on top. Ski penatration was around 6", boot penatration was to ground. As the day went on, small chooting cracks were popping out on convex rollovers, but not enough tension to create a cohesive slab releases yet.
