Quick Observation
We dug on a NW aspect at 1300 meters , snow depth was 170 cm at 1 00 pm. Our results were not concerning with a CTN, ECTX. We did get a hard result on a deep tap test 105 cm down on the Dec 07 MFCR complex, so still alert about this layer heading into spring, but it remains dormant for now. The snow quality was great, with 15-30 cm of soft snow. Where we skied the wind slab was soft and not producing any slabs. We saw no new avalanches today off the highway, and witnessed some wind effect on S aspects. Great day in Haines Pass.
