Snowpack

went for a skin up washington gulch to see how the current wind slabs are reacting. I used some low angle feature E facing just above the drainage. I managed to get 3 significant propagation's and large whoomphs in small terrain features. 2 of which i managed to trigger from slopes with an angle of about 15 degrees. Some results from the pit, CTM13 SC, CTM14 SC, ECTP13 SC and PST 18/100 END. All results were down 19cm and appeared to be releasing on SH 4.0, just below last 2 wind events leaving slab. Usual facets below this. Mainly easy shears on same weak layer.
