7 of us enjoyed great snow in Crystal BC. We found skied some lines inside the thinner trees  on the NW aspects of the bowl. We dug a few pits. The pit that we dug closest to the aspect we skied resulted in:
~15 cm down Q2 Compression Test 11 taps and ~70cm Q3 Compression Test 20
I didn't actually write it down out there, just remembering more or less (guys & gals correct me if you would).
The snow pack seemed yellow light to us so we opted to stay close to lots of anchors. We had a couple great runs before heading out.
Peace.
