Observations
We thankfully did not encounter any breakable crust as the forecast warned but there was significant frozen avy debris and many open creeks. The new storm snow was drier than anticipated. Pickets of stiff wind-transported snow are present in the bowl below Pineapple Pass. Older snow at the level of Source Lake is still very wet.
