Burstall

MWerner, Saturday 1st February, 2025 11:00AM
Significant snowfall and wind at burstall overnight and this morning, tapering around 12:00. Conditions were extremely touchy, shooting cracks at basically any slope angle. Witnessed windslab failure on ridgeline. Did a quick pit because there was too much snow to ski anything. Results at wind loaded area on E aspect just below the pass: - 155cm HS - 45cm height of storm snow (15cm yesterday, 30cm today) - CTE 45 cm planar at interface with surface hoar. CTM 80 cm sudden collapse. - ECTX, not much storm slab cohesion, but would expect that to change.
