Propagation at 14 and 16 taps on an extended column test 2' down from the surface. The propagation occurred on a layer of fist hard decomposing stellars. If we didn't have a storm lined up for next week to add more weight to this weak layer then I would say that it would settle out shortly. This layer is spotty and worth looking for prior to committing to steep slopes especially as we add more snow and wind.
