Quick Observation

A few laps above the cut line. Fun turns in mellow terrain. Avoided the areas above 1300m and further to the east that looked to have some overhead hazard. It does appear that things have stabilized slightly since last week but we stayed conservative cause of the weather and snow dragons. Temps rose during the day to above 0, but has been gradual over past few days so left that box unchecked above. Did 3 pits, all NE aspect. 1100m, 1250m, and one in between on slopes between 20 and 30 degrees. Results mainly supported the terrain we figured was low risk. Would be nice to have some pits in higher altitude/steeper/other aspects. in those pits, 4 column tests 1100m - SP CT26 30cm down on facets 1100m - CTN - kept going from shoulder until failure - SP CT31 80cm down on 1250m - CTN - kept going from shoulder until failure - SP CT32 80cm down on ~1200m - ECTN - but poor isolation at the back of column...; CT 24 30cm down on top of facets CT 23 40cm down on bottom of facets
