Snowpit Observations
More detailed information about the snowpack: 

Still some lingering instabilities in the Saturday 11/27 storm snow but no signs of propagation in any of the stability tests or informal observations.  The early season basal facet layer was present on upper northern aspects but showed no signs of propagation with the propagation saw test. The 11/19-21 storm snow is consolidating and there is now a "bottom" feel to the snowpack while skiing.  A very faint suncrust was felt on south east aspects below 8500'.
