Comments
Test pit on lee slope that has seen a lot of wind loading over the last few days! ECTP28 down 90 on SH (4.0-6.0). P hard slab above.
T10 in pit was -8.7 / air temp was -2.2
Evidence of loose dry releases in alpine E/SE by 9 am
Overnight, SH (2.0-3.0) formed in most locations, at and below TL.
Play safe out there folks!
