10 inches of fresh snow and sunny skies made for a great day on shaded slopes. North facing aspects had dry powder, while those facing south started to get a little bit of a crust and are still pretty thin. Stability is still not great on shaded slopes because of a facet layer at the bottom of the pack from snow that fell at the end of October and early November.
