Pit dug around 2100m. Cut off clean on 7th swing from elbow; did a second test, same result but on 2nd full swing. Slid on the nov rain crust (about 5mm think) 110 cms down, facets. Some natural crowns were noticed around the same elevation from a distance. They were on very steep terrain and seemed like they would have slid off the same crust.
