Quick Observation

A quick look at the Blowmidon Mountains. Out of there just after lunch, due to poor visibility and increasing winds. Travel through the open foothills was pretty poor, very little snow, and lots of rock. Lots of snow on the approach through the woods, 30-50 cm of low density throughout. Under the newer snow, in loaded lee features,, we found an extremely hard crust. Our tests produced results directly on this crust, with propagation in our Extended Column Tests. Didn’t get a good gauge on the Alpine, but there was definitely snow available for transport, and on the move, when we were on our way out.
