Comments
Saw two size 1 on storm slab on north facing slopes, did compression tests and storm slab was releasing 30-40 cm think on back cut on isolating block. Below tree line conditions were better storm slab was not as wind affected and not as reactive. Did find small pockets of buried SH crated CTE 10 down 15 cm repeated.
