New and old snow weaknesses on Andesite Ridge

We performed multiple CTs, ECTs, and one RB today at about 7600' on Andesite Ridge.  Many easy to very easy planer breaks within the top 40 cm.  No ECTPs observed.  About a half dozen collapses were felt during our tour, mostly below the more wind pressed snow near the ridge crest.  HS where we dug was a little greater than 2 m, 135 cm of it new in the last 36 hours.  Two breaks revealed with the RB: RB4 (PB) in the crust/facet combo of the old snow surface of 20190105, and RB4 (WB) 40 cm below snow surface.  Overcast and snowing lightly all afternoon; air temp hovering around 0 C.  Ski pen was knee deep on the upside-down new snows in wind sheltered areas, boot pen was belt-buckle deep.  Light winds with recent cornice development.  Minor snow transport.  Visibility limited: could not see Castle Peak.
