Quick report

Our tour to check out Huntington Ravine Took us to northern side, south facing slope of the fan. At 13:10 4180', we had blue sky's, moderate to severe wind swirling around in most directions. We noticed lots of snow transporting from the ridge in to the ravine. Upon digging a test plus pit on 33 degree slope we found HST varied, 40cm to 90cm. On an ECT found a non-propagate release 20cms down in a crust from two storms ago. Seemed mostly stable. Definite sign of wind loading in Center by the rock face, and across most of the ravine. Rock-10 cm - 1F 1-12cm -- K 12-13cm -1F 13-20cn - K 20-35cm - F+ 34-40cm - P
