Partly cloudy skies with a light wind from the southwest. Temperatures were in the upper teens climbing to low twenties.

Snowpack

The snow pack on northerly aspects is faceted in the top third and bottom third with a layer of rounded grains in the middle that was starting to facet. Stability tests showed a collapse below this middle layer, CT 23, and there were not results with ECT, ECTX.
