After getting no propagation in our snowpit, but getting a CT9 compression test result, I was curious on if there was anything that would slide. We safely broke off some cornice chunks (photo 1) and they slide down the slop and broke into the new snow. A slope cut did not produce any results, but jumping very hard I was able to get the entire new snow to slide, but only the width of my skis (photo 2). There was no propation.
