Stable weather and conditions on Brown

Found generally good stability today on Mt Brown.

• Valley fog and thin high clouds with plenty of sunshine. Snow surfaces remained frozen all day; no wet concerns
• Excellent visibility: No recent slab activity, a few small wet loose ran off of Stanton’s and Brown’s south faces yesterday.
• No signs of instability. We skied on terrain up to 40 degrees at mid and upper elevations.
• The melt-freeze/ rain crust reached up to 6800’ and became thinner and softer at upper elevations. There is .5”-2” of fresh snow on this crust that was already showing signs of near surface faceting at mid elevations.
