I got out over the weekend to have a look at the snowpack before the incoming storm and found widely variable snow conditions and coverage but with one common theme - it's all pretty weak on northerly aspects. Near treeline and slightly below, average depths are 16"-20", most of which have become loose, weak, and faceted. Above treeline, winds have stripped slopes bare while alternately loading depressions and gullies and snow depths of 2' or more can be found. In these areas, faceted weak layers are interspersed between hard wind slabs (see this observation from Chris Benson). It's a complex pattern over all but regardless, the danger is going to rise when we add more snow.

Most south facing slopes are bare but for the occasional ribbon of firmly crusted snow. Upper elevation, SE aspects hold the most, and weak faceted snow has been observed in these areas.
