Comments

Pit dug at 1525m on North East aspect. 125-135cm. Didn't see any results from novice colum test. No surface sun crust, wind load or scour. Temp was very stable around -5 duration of the tour. Seemed to be between low ceiling and fog in town (1100m) snow skied great didn't hit anything underfoot.
