Observed 6-7" of lower density new snow today on Woody Ridge, with maybe 3" or so since last night. There was a crust present on south facing aspects to pretty much the top of Woody. This crust was at times present on north facing aspects also. The new snow was decently bonded to the crust in most places. Dug a pit in a fairly open but sheltered area about 3/4 way up Woody. Dug 3.5-4 feet down and the snowpack appeared fairly locked up following last week's atmospheric river event. No new avalanche activity observed besides what has already been reported (e.g. east face Republic).
