We dug in 2 locations, 1 near Double Hill and the included profile closer to Moffit Pass. We were looking to evaluate if the PWL was active in these locations. Near Double Hill, the faceted layer was buried 150cm. Near Moffit Pass, the layer was only buried 95cm, but was unreactive to our stability tests.

- <p>The natural avalanche on Double Peak (<a href="https://utahavalanchecenter.org/avalanche/84221">https://utahavalanchecenter.org/avalanche/84221</a>) was indicative of the sensitivity of the wind-drifted new snow.</p>
The new snow lead to near perfect riding conditions.
