Striking pit observations After Rusch block Test

saul.greenberg, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Pit on south sheltered open treed slope slope ~2100 m on the Sister (near Ruby Creek). 2 prominent layers at 75 and 110 cm. CTM 13 SP @ 110cm; ECT 13 SP @ 75cm. Rusch block test gave quite different result, with SP R3 @ 50cm on storm snow transition layer, and SP R5 @ 75 cm. Photo shows distinct separation of layers after Rusch block Test. Definitely suggested caution, where we skied conservative well supported slopes</p>
