Snowpack
Dug at 6100' on an E/NE slope on the east side of Kangaroo Ridge. Height of snow was 250cm with the AR crust down 125cm. We got a resistant planar result on a compression test 20cm and 60cm down on old storm interfaces.
Avalanche
Ski cut the panel off the Notch (NE). Broke a 20cm wind slab, 40ft wide (D1.5) but didnt entrain enough snow to bury a person.
