Comments
Snow depth 125cm at 1400m. Dug a very quick curiosity pit, found a solid crust at ~25cm. SC failure @ moderate at that layer inteface in a compression test. Ski cutting convexities produced some resistant slabbing. Snowed heavily through the day, ~20cm fresh on our trail by the time we left. Ski pen 40cm, light snow.
