Comments

Surface Hoar sz 3mm mixed with new snow on the surface.

2mm Rain crust down 15cm.

Another Melt Freeze (1cm thick) is down 30cm. There is some fracture activity associated with this layer but our pit was not an ideal location for snowpack testing.

Finally Depth Hoar is starting to develope 5cm to ground.

Total snow pack is 60cm.
