DISCLAIMER: Not very experienced digging snow pits or examining layers Hiked up Ha Ling on Saturday to do some research on the Miners Gully line. Did not bring skis. Just hiked up and down the day hiking trail. Lowered into the line around 5-10 meters to dig a pit and see how things are looking while on a rope. Top 15cms are a very reactive slab. Next 60cms would pop as well with some convincing. Bottom portion of the snow pack, 90cm plus, is all very sugary snow. Did not leave with confidence! Decently large cornice has formed over the entrance to this line. We dug away at most of it and threw the snow boulders into the line seeing how the snow would react, nothing reacted. Very windy at the top while we were there and snowing slightly.
