Weather
Snow surface
Surface hoar observed from the parking lot to the location we dug pits and skied down. Large, up to 3in at parking lot elevation and getting smaller as we climbed. Surface hoar was harder to find and smaller at the pit location on Tin Can, looked like it might have melted from yesterdays warm temps.
Snowpack
Generally right side up rounds at pit locations. Many groups had test results of ECTX and CTN, with one CT27Q3 down 45cm.
generally great conditions
large surface hoar
