Comments
Dug two pits;
1) Southern aspect, facing north. Fairly stable, layer 30-40 cm down was reacting, but with the propagation test, slope seemed stable. Skied well, no problems
2) northern aspect, facing south. Similar layer, more prominent, 30-40 cm down, was more reactive and clean break on initial coulum test. Propagation test, 21 (one from shoulder), highly reactive and clean. Stayed clear
Rain friday should clean the deep layer up
