Snowpack
Digging on the north and northeast slopes above a natural and remote triggered avalanche showed no test results, as the recent snow has settled into a slab that makes up almost 2/3 of the current snowpack. The new snow sits over weaker faceted snow that makes up around the bottom 50 cms of the snowpack. Hand hardness in the new snow went from fist to 1 finger, getting stiffer with depth. Snowpack testing showed hard failures in the basal weak layer, which matched some of the surrounding avalanche activity. The boot pen was only 20 cm, and the ski pen was around 10 cms. No cracking No collapsing.
