Snow Conditions
crusty, heavy

Sun crust under 10-20cm snow made for okay but not great skiing. Compression test showed no fractures, did not experience any instabilities while skiing. Feb3rd crust and basal facets present but didn’t cause issues. Other groups went up into the alpine with no problems from what I could tell. Overall a nice sunny day out but area will remain pretty tracked until more snow.
