We did a quick trip for a couple laps on Sunnyside. There was a significant rain crust (.5cms thick) up to 1600m it thinned out slightly, but was present all the way to the top at 1900m. There was a few cm’s of graupel between the crust and storm slab that may be troublesome with a significant load. We also dug a quick pit at 1850m and had total depth of 200cm’s. We had a result on CT26 at 150cm’s which is likely the recent storm slab. There were no settlements on our travels up.
