Observation: Catherine's Pass

Snowpack Fist first 6-8 in followed by finger density for the rest of the snow pack. Faceting/sugar snow observed at 15-20 cm from the base.

Completed a Compression test on the snowpack. Slight compression observed on CT2 with the new snow but not concerning in my opinion. It was bound to happen based on the density of the snow. Continuing the test found results at CT22 when the snowpack collapsed at the faceted/sugar snow layer. It was a fairly clean break on that line. Persistent layer is forming and will continue to be a concern unless the snowpack strengthens at that depth.
