Seemed like the snowpack in the Crystal area was composed of fresh snow, on top of a rain-crust, on top of a less cohesive layer near the ground.

 

All things being equal - loading the snowpack with moisture and breaking off the weak bits before things get cold again could be a good thing for the snowpack.

I'm no expert but I found a similar situation in a pit near Kendall lakes at Snoqualmie Pass.
