Quick Observation

Toured up summer trail to near ridge top. Temp at parking lot -5C this morning with light SW winds. Really good skiing was found in protected gullies below rib features. Dug a profile at 2200m, NW aspect, height of snow 145cm. Winds were light gusting to moderate with significant snow transport occurring at treeline and above. We saw no new avalanches or signs of instability. No compression test results on the Nov. 23rd crust down 50cm. Compression test results on the Oct. 31 crust down 90cm varied from a sudden collapse in the hard range to no result at all.
