Metal Dome/Brandywine

<p>CTE (1) Down 25 SP (SSL) on HST interface. Compression Test Easy Down 25cm from the surface of the snowpack, Sudden Planar Result on the newest storm snow interface. Numerous natural avalanches (size 1 at Below Tree Line and Tree Line) on steep 35 + degree slopes, (we observed these on South slopes and East slopes). 120cm of unconsolidated Fist to 4Finger snow with the lower 3rd of the 120cm at 1F resistance. BLOWER! and lots of stucks! Extended column tests yielded no results (ECTX) low density snow and overall progressive compression on testing. Visited basin of Brandywine bowl but observed no avalanches with limited visibility. </p>
