Quick Observation
Skied south aspects down FTC col, finding crusty skiing where terrain is angled more towards sun. In the afternoon lapped East and Northeast aspects around Wawa bowl with a couple other parties in the area and found great skiing, ~20-25cm of fist over the Jan 24th layer, midpack progressively resistant going from 4-finger to pencil resistance. Digging a test pit in a sheltered surface hoar farm in open trees protected from wind and sun found 6-8mm SH down 25 producing CTE/CTM resistant planer breaks. Jan 3 surface hoar down 60cm producing ECTP 14 results on 3-5mm surface hoar. Pencil resistance snow above and below layer. Other than the spooky test results, no signs of reactivity. Suspect Jan 3 distribution is this area is spotty, being cooked off solar aspects and blown off windy slopes.
