More detailed information about the snowpack: 

 Skied several laps on Powderhouse with no movement aside from surface sloughs.  I tried to knock off the large cornice to looker's right of the bench near the summit, but it wouldn't go, and when the surface sloughed off it didn't go far below, so I jumped off of it with no drama.  Overall everything was very, very stable and I've never seen so much snow on top with no wind effect at all--it looked like 12"+ just fell straight down.
