| Depth Hoar (3mm grid squares) grains at 1000m on a NW aspect nr twin Burns - ground level |
A grain layer that has been subjected to a prolonged steep temperature gradient, becoming facets which has then developed into depth hoar or cup crystals (note striations )- a weak sugar like, loose grain layer at ground - this is now wet but is currently supported by strong layers above.
