<p>Dug 3 pits and had planar, electric results with our compression tests on the storm slab 30-40cm down. While filling in our pits we triggered a small slab about 10m across that failed on the storm slab (see in pic). Large surface hoar layers also found here. A group ahead of us triggered a bigger slab in the middle cut block on a steeper slope that partially buried one skier, who was unharmed. </p>
