Snowpack

The snowpack was 117cm deep on a north facing slope. Recent snowfall over the past several days has yet to consolidate into a top layer, and the ice layer from the last freeze/thaw cycle is still prevalent. The snowpack is mostly right-side up, with the exception of the knife hard ice layer. An extended column test yielded minimal results, with the weak layer at 46cm down collapsing but not propagating after 21 taps.
