Spent the weekend at the Blind Hollow Yurt. It hardly stopped snowing Friday-Monday, low visibility but great skiing. Lots of wind loading on the N/E ridge. We didn't observe any collapsing but definitely found some wind slabs and crusts throughout the weekend. We dug a pit Sunday and did some tests. During our ECT a layer about 55 cm down propagated and slid off clean on 29 taps.
