Quick Observation
Trip to check on conditions. Snowpack thin - 100-110cm. Lots of sharks waiting just under the surface. Beautiful dry powder about 30cm ski pen. No wind slabs or consolidation in the entire snowpack
Snowpack
100-110cm to ground. Deepest 30cm just ground veg and rotten snow, so about a 70cm snowpack. No signs of wind slab at all. Unconsolidated down to ground vegetation. ECT: shovel was down 30cm after 10 taps, and finally column failed at the ground vegetation (70cm) on the 20th without propagation
