Comments
Fantastic powder skiing on the north facing cutblock and treed slopes of Forum Ridge. Dug an ECT pit at 1870m on a 25 degree slope facing due north near the top of the major burn area. Snow depth 2 meters. Results: ECT-X. Able to finally release the entire test block on the freeze/thaw crust at 85 cm after REALLY reefing and pulling very hard on the shovel at the back of the test block. No whumping or cracking while skinning up or skiing down. Tomorrow a major warming trend and possible rain will obviously change things.....
