Refreeze on Hawk's Peak

The long awaited refreeze last night was evident in the firm crust that persisted from 10:30am-12:30pm. This rain crust was firm enough to cause essentially no ski penetration at lower elevations. At upper elevations (7500-8000ft) I observed between 0-2cm of newish snow transported by wind. Wind scour and deposits were small but pervasive across higher elevation terrain.

In the distance, I noticed broken cornices on Sunrise Bowl and another east facing slope that may have occured in the past week or two.
