Harsch = hardsnow/ice ?
Sulz = slush?

Harsch or Bruchharsch is the kind of breakable crust that typically really sucks. Sulz is like mashed potatoes, so yes, slush i guess. Eis is ice.

and if you're real picky you even distinguish between wind- and schmelz/bruchharsch. windcrust and refrozen crust after the top snow layer melted.
and yes sulz=slush

Actually, technically, firn is snow that is more than one season old. I.e. compacted, but not yet ice.

What we refer to as corn, or seasonal snow that has undergone one or more melt-freeze cycles, is technically called 'sulz'.

However, in day-to-day use, firn is used to indicate corn or sulz snow, although technically not 100% correct.
