Tame dogging on the meadows

Went up hermit trail to the meadows, rode down on grizzly path. Snow was good, but sun crust around treeline.

Dug pits at 2200m on hermit meadows. Slope was around 25 degrees and SE facing. CTM to CTH drop down 110 cm on the crust from early feb. Also saw a sun crust down 80 cm which wasn't reactive. Tried an extended column test, didn't get any results. There was a small storm interface down 30 cm which failed on a test.

Saw two size 2 avalanches next to each others on the hermit meadows, could be a natural or a remotre trigger from ski tracks close. Most likely slab slipped two days ago
