Snowpack
20"+ on the pass today. Little wind through the night into early morning. Moderate winds in the mid-day. Moderate transport. Given the lack of wind, not much in the way of slab development. Only small isolated, wind-effected areas. Got numerous small, loose slides on ski cuts on the S aspects. Most running on the old surface..sun crust. Sluff was fast-moving but small and very manageable. Skied very little on the N so not much to add other than some sloughing. We'll see if we put some more load on this week.
Must admit, even with the snow being so "loose", I expected to see things moving a bit more
