25cm of new Storm Snow by departures @ 1500 hrs, winds Light SW. Great skiing, stuck to low angle open terrain and treed terrain. 65cm HS @ 1740m; so still very tricky skiing in some areas at low elevation.

Snowpack

1cm Ice crust @ 26cm, Facets above and Below, no signs of Surface Hoar (likely from solar or wind) Compression test failed to ground upon isolating. 27 deg incline, SW aspect. RB 1 Storm slab, RB 2 break on ice interface (Nov 21?) Overall the snowpack was very faceted around the various ice layers.
