Skiied the sugarcube couloir today, was full of powder and ended up being very stable. First test was CT 11, 16 at 20cm and 40cm depths at the toe of the fan leading to the couloir, bottom up. We both almost decided to leave based off those results, but one we tried to reproduce with an ECT there was zero propagation observed. Awesome boot packing with a supportive layer below. Some solar effect unsurprisingly over and S facing snow, but no wind slabs of note observed
