See photo captions. Surfaces have very small near surface facets on both north and south aspects. Large surface hoar below treeline in places. No signs of instability other than rollerballs.

Lots of rollerballs and a few small wet loose from yesterday on steep SE, S, SW aspects N/ATL. A few more rollerballs today. Spotted a two more undocumented old crowns from 1/20 - 1/21 cycle on SE aspects above treeline.
