Today in the silver sands we noticed debris from a small size 1 natural Avalanche above the cabin at 7km. In our pit we had a Hight of snow at 100cm and had a crusty sandwhich down 20-40cm reacting in the easy range and the persistent facet layer was down 80cm reacting in the moderate range of our compression tests. Snowpack is reactive so play safe and ride with caution.
