Comments
A good day on Pulpit Knob 2. Skiied the large face NE in the bowl behind the ridge. Some crust below the ~10cm unconsolidated surface layer that made skinning challenging at times.
ECT failed on 13 about 15cm down on 30deg slope. Did not propagate across, was resistive to hand movement. No sluff "propogation" from turns on NE face skiied. Chute #2 was wind effected in center but powder was found either side of center in chute.
