LADYBIRD - Julie-Ann she shreds Ast 1

Morning was very sunny and warm, by later afternoon it got cloudy and cold.

Left the parking lot it was -11 and very cold around 9am... at about noon it was very sunny and about -5… By 1 PM the clouds rolled in and got cold again to about -9.

In our rutschblock test with a snowmobile on top, we got a reactive layer on the top 25cm wind slab. SE aspect 1850 M 30 degree slope. In our extended column tests on SE aspect at 1800M we got a CTE7 on the wind slab, and a CTM6 both were sudden pops/drops on a 25 degree slope. Anything steeper would have probably slid off the surface hoar layer the storm snow was sitting on. Our third layer of concern, the persistent weak layer that is down 125cm was unreactive (on the same slope above).
