Comments

Went to Bow Summit area to dig a snow profile.

Targeting areas of concern that are fans below cliff bands to look for slab properties over the crust layer.

The results are as follows.

2470m NE 35deg HS 95cm

CTE (4) SC dn 80cm

CTM (15) SC dn 80cm

CTH (25) SC dn 80cm

Wide range of results, snowpack right side up but reacting on the crust and facets. Season is still young and so is the snowpack, take it easy out there.
