<p>didn't see any signs of instability, however did dig one deeper hand pit just to get a feel for what has been going on. Worthwhile for me to try get a handle on things. Saw trent Meisenheimer's vid and other observations-pretty much ditto. </p> <p>On a due n facing 9800' rocky slope. the early feb facets are easy to find 1 foot down.</p> <p> next signifigant load (snow) If we get any could be interesting. Not a lot of snow avail for transport anymore (sun crust), but there is some. </p> <p>I left before the heat, so no comments on heating.</p>

Where I dug was 40" deep, on rocks, there is depth whore around rocks (5" deep).
