Snowpack

Top slab was easily triggered, multiple week layers seemed to exist in the snow pack. During our column test the first failure was at about 30 cm. 10 cm down another failure occurred. The November crust seemed to be very resistant to failing despite our efforts to trigger it. The picture of crystals is from the November crust. My first Min report, so take it with a grain of salt!
