Snowpack
- Instability Comment
- <p>10 to 12' of new snow on top of weak and sugary/faceted snow.</p> <p>Widespread faceted snow due to the January drought. I dug two separate snow pits facing north by northwest and north. Both pits reacted while initiating a extended column test and 1 and 11, or, ECTP1 and ECTP11. Full propagation on the new snow/old snow interface which can also be seen in the test slope cut pic. </p>
10 to 12" of new snow on top of thin crust layer with faceting snow below the crust.
