Snowpack

Instability Comment
<p>Hs about 30m away from ridgeline on WNW and NW aspect varied from 150-170 cm. Across 5 snow profiles, the Jan 5th interface varied from 70-95cm in depth and consisted of F+ or 4F hard 2-3 mm FC. Almost invariably we saw sudden fractures in CTs and ECTs produced propagation with moderate or hard loading steps. PST consistently produce END results with (&lt;50/100) cuts.</p>
