Deep Days In The Back

<p>Quick test profile at 1970m, we had repeated compression test results down 30cm on a Storm interface. An extended column failed partial block at the true storm snow height of 55cm. The snow pack was right side up. A boot penetration done resulted in 80cm. Signs of wind effect were noted on high alpine slopes, but remained soft in our ride area of sheltered elevations. Storm snow showed varying levels ranging from 20cm-65cm throughout the day. Get out and ride!</p>
