Comments

Took a stroll up jimmy junior - the area has seen a lot of traffic. All aspects we rode were crusty, tracked, and somewhat wind affected. Made for a mix bag of skiing.

Dug a quick pit at 2180 meters - south east facing slope. Most noticeable result was a resistant planar failure on the facets at the bottom of the snowpack (70cms deep) on CT18.

Otherwise, no other signs of instability.
