Snowpack Discussion
The snow surface likely consists of a mix of hard melt-freeze crust and dry snow depending on aspect and elevation. Sun-exposed slopes may undergo daily melting and freezing whereas northerly alpine slopes could remain dry with potential slabs.
Weak layers of surface hoar and/or faceted grains may persist in the upper to middle portions of the snowpack, especially around Haines Pass.
Weak faceted grains may exist near the base of the snowpack, particularly in thin snowpack areas. There is potential for these layers to reawaken under periods of intense or prolonged warming or rain.
