North Raft

Travis Goodridge, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>10cm of HN for a total of 25HST from the past days. HS is highly variable from 40cm to 118cm in the elevation bands of 1,700m and 2050m HS drops off significantly bellow 1,800m, especially in the trees. BTL snow where it is shallow is still quite weak, faceted below the recent HST until the lower crust. Lots of early season hazards. Low angle, open TL is where we found our best skiing Snow Pit HS 118cm on a 10deg open, sheltered N at 2050m Nov.23 SH dn 23cm just above the Nov.23 Cr. (Preserved cups and fragments 3-5mm) Both CT produced 12, 17 (RP) on the SH and 14, 20 SC 25cm dn underneath the Nov.23 Cr. The crust seemed to be breaking down as well. 70cm dn several laminated crusts existed. With the warmer temps the facets from the last cold snap are rounding out throughout the snowpack here </p>
