This snowpack was laid down exactly how we like it. Heavy, dense snow on the bottom, medium density in the middle, and light density on the top. We did not get any shears while doing stability test nor did we experience any cracking or collapsing while skinning or skiing. We did not have the pleasure of receiving this type of layering once last year so it was a welcomed site. Lets hope it stays that way.
