Quick report
- Collapsing
- isolated
Yesterday, we found several layers of crusts mixed with faceted layers. These layers were reactive. Today, in sheltered terrain we saw pockets of very weak snow with wind deposited and new snow on top. We did not see any significant ECT results. As we traveled we performed hand pits that showed signs of this wind/new to be forming a slab. Collapses were isolated under individual body weight as we moved through terrain.
