Skied Girlfriends Bowl. Found a highly variable snowpack ranging from 20cm at 1200m in the lower moraines to 140cm at 1400m where we dug. Snow has been extensively distributed by winds. Moderate results just below the Nov 23rd crust 80cm down and multiple moderate extended column test results that did not propagate ECTN in the mid and upper snowpack. Ski quality degraded as we gained elevation from loose snow to stiff windslab.
