North slope of Round Mountain

<p>Dug a pit off the north side of the peak on a 30 degree slope angle. Pit was dug to 110 cm. Snow pack probed to 220 cm, Column test had no failures. A weak layer was evident 40 cm below the surface, 70 cm below the surface was a solid crust layer but did not fail on compression test. We skied off the south side off a steep slope, I did a slope test by means of jumping on my downhill ski and had no release. </p>
