Good quality skiing at NRC Gully / Macdonald West Shoulder #4 today, with no signs of instability underfoot. Buried crusts were encountered further to skier's right, atop possible old avy debris. See "snowpack" tab for column test results.

Snowpack

Dug a pit at 2190m on a SW aspect adjacent to NRC Gully. Test results are as follows: (1) CTE4 RP @ 155cm (from grade), (2) CTM5 RP @ 145, (3) CTH3 off-level RP @ 120 (suspect this could be an old track due to off-level character), (4) CTH7 sudden planar result @ 95.
