Weather

Crystal clear and cold overnight. Clouds and winds building mid-morning.

Snowpack

Possibly the worse I've ever experienced. Constant whoomphing on all aspects below treeline, became less frequent but louder above treeline. Multiple weak layers sandwiched with strong layers, and the ever-present basal facets. Whoomphs resulted in "shattered" slopes on road cuts but little snow movement.
