Weather
Fairly warm with light cloud cover most of the day. Periods of intense sun when it poked through the clouds.
Snowpack
The snowpack here is generally deep and strong. Average snow depths came in at 200cm. I dug in two locations, one north and one south, and found completely different layers. The south-facing pit was much stronger and more uniform, where the cold north was mostly faceted, but lacked significant differences in layering. Neither location had reactive test results and ECTX was all I could produce. I'd say overall, this area is tracking inline with other areas in the Steamboat zone and LOW danger was confirmed.
