Weather

Occasional flurries, very little wind, scattered sky cover.

Snowpack

350-400cm deep. Had partial fracture on ECT 30 as indicated in photo. Clean sheer ~30cm down on melt/freeze crust. Rest of it sheared off from shovel pry behind it. Then a shovel pry caused rest of extended column to sheer clean at our isolation point from 200+ cm down.

Avalanche

None.
