Went out to do some beacon drills and pit practice. Snow pack is still shallow at 60 cm where we dug our pit, but seemed relatively stable. We were still dodging rocks on the way down. We got a CT2 within the new snow from Saturday, and a CT22 in a layer we didnt even see until the test. The deepest layer (0-30cm) was very dense. With the snowpack as shallow as it is, seems like a great time to brush up on rescue skills before the season really starts to ramp up.
