In a typical snowpack, we can find many different snow layers composed of different types of particles. So dig a snow-pit and try to identify as many of these layers as possible. If you don’t know how to dig a pit, click here. Here’s a chart you can use to help you identify the various snow crystals you’ll encounter and to assess the level of snow stability in each layer. You can also download this chart onto your cell phone and take it with you as a reference.
