<p>No cracking, collapsing or recent avalanches noted in this area. No rapid warming observed in the AM. </p>

We dug a handful of pits just before arriving at the top of lanes leap. Avg HS was 150. Only one ECTP on 26. Weak layer was buried 1 meter deep with a good 30 cm of pencil hard slab. Facets are gaining strength but still show sorry structure in hardness test. Pictured below on a 3mm grid. First photo near the ground. Next photo around 45cm from the ground.
