Comments

Dug a pit north facing 1330m in an open section around 20°slope. -5° @ 1230pm

Snowpack depth 190cm

Crust layers down 105, 110, 112

Very thick crust layer down 135-137, 4 cm of 4F facets below

CTM18RP Down35 -maybe wind deposit?

Coverage isn't quite ready for the big lines it looks like. The North trees are just filled in enough with the right line.

Mamquam is a sheet of ice with tracks driving off the road everywhere, and the turn off is probably un driveable past the first corner, about a foot of hardpack on the road by 500m
