Lincoln Ridge observations

We hiked Lincoln Ridge today and found more continuous snow cover in the 7,500' to 7,800' elevation range on northerly aspects than we have seen in other parts of the forecast area. Below 7,500' snow cover is very patchy. Overall the snowpack is faceting and weakening, but still at the stronger end of the current spectrum seen across the forecast area. That said, the facets in the mid pack (Nov 9 layer) are some of the most well developed I've seen so far this season with striations and some very square corners. The weakening snowpack structure, CT SC results, and PST end propagation at 62% cut length results suggest ongoing future concern for this weakening but currently stable snowpack structure.
