Comments
Did test pit on south west facing slope total HS was 115. Very wind effected snow pack. Any new snow from last weekend was gone. Test were failing at CTE10 down 30 wind slabs. and the CTM 18 down 80 cm on facets. Winds were so storm at ridge top that all snow was being transported off and creating fog effect in Pine Pass.
