Comments
Nice boot-top pow skiing on moderate terrain on a quick tour up/down Race Car. No wind effect where we skied but lots of slab activity following the last storm on other steeper north slopes below cliffs.
Pit at 2080m on NW aspect below Race Car had HS 235cm. Compression test gave hard failures at 40cm and 90cm, both on surface hoar layers. ECT gave a hard failure on the 40cm layer.
