Comments
Incredible skiing above 2100m on south and east aspects. Below 2000m snow surface is crusty and very shallow with numerous hazards (rocks, roots, dirt...) to avoid. Steep west facing slopes had a sun crust. Evidence of an old loose wet cycle to 1.5 on all steep aspects. No significant results from compression test at 2300m, east aspect, 35deg.
