Comments
There is now anywhere from 30-50cm on top of the crust. In areas where the wind had started to press the new snow into a slab we observed shooting cracks and small (<1) slab avalanches. Only the top 10-15cm was slabbing up, but we avoided more wind affected terrain near ridgetop where I imagine the slab would be deeper.
