Up to 50cm of new snow on a styrofoam-like crust. We did an ECT at the waypoint indicated. 2022m, 35 degree slope, w/sw aspect, snowpack varying between 150-170 cm. No propagation across entire column. However a CT in the same pit had a sudden planar fracture at CT2. We skied conservatively (saying “woo” infrequently and only very quietly). Parking lot needed 4WD and courage to access.
