We rode down the NE aspect in the warm morning sun. Dug a small pit about halfway down for s&g’s (approx 1200m). SC CTV 0 15cm down, CTM5 about 50cm down. Total depth just under 1m. Sun was softening up the crusty layer on top before noon but we decided to not test our luck too much with the icey crust and shooting cracks making for some chill and sunny turns!
