Notes

S2 snow most of the day. Light winds, overcast. Extensive large whumpfs and cracks at about 7000-7800 feet. Snow was unsupportable in many places, others had a clear slab in the midpack you could feel with a pole probe. Dug a pit at 7500 ft on east aspect...Bottom 30cm was large facets bordering on depth hoar. Clear cups forming and 3-4mm or so (F). CT18. ECTX, which surprised me... I should have done a second test. Was able to propagate on the depth hoar using a snow saw easily, though did not perform full PST.
