Comments
Great riding out there for early season. Averaging 190cm at 2100m in sheltered locations. Air temps at 1300hrs -8. Very mixed bag of weather with cloud, fog and sun today. Light winds from the SW. Lots of riders out and no avalanche activity noticed with the exception of natural loose dry sluffing in steep lee terrain (sz1)
Test profile at 2100m Nasp - 185cms 32deg. 55cm unconsolidated HST on top of 40cm stiffer slab (1f). Only major test results where located at the interface of the storm snow and older slab. CHT (RP) dwn 55cms. No results on extended column test. And no results on this interface when sled cutting steeper low consequence convexities.
Nov crust is down 110-120cms on average when probing around. No results on crust in test prof
Ride safe.
