CTE 5 dn 30cm RP on a (dense) Sz.4 surface hoar @ 1850m NW aspect in open trees. SH Showed signs of bonding to the new snow but was not decomposing yet. With the new load of the last storm I would be very concerned with new snow instability for days to come.

We also had some fun with a RB5 that was also RP.

Both lower crusts from Nov were noted but seem well bonded and are showing signs of trending improvement.
