Unsupported slope test

kg74, Sunday 22nd January, 2023 6:00PM
<p>While riding at the VOR Tower, we followed the ridge line trail south. We did an impromptu 850cc trail side slope test in a shelterd location on the west side of the ridge and had a 30cm, 1-finger hardness slab fail on buried surface hoar. In open areas at ridge top we had surface hoar up to 2cm in size! Hope this gets broken down before the next snowfall!</p>
