Rummel Lake

Went out in search of dry snow and found it in some tight, north facing glades between 2100 and 2300 meters. Dug a test pit at about 2300 meters and found 170cm height of snow. Bottom 90 cm was depth hoar with a 20cm thick dense (1 finger) slab on top. This was capped by a 10cm thick crust-facet-crust sandwich. A compression test produced a CTM14 non-planar break failure on this facet/crust combo. The overlying slab was 25cm of 4 finger dense snow grading into 15cm of soft dry powder on top.
