Snowpack

HS 100: Top spx 10cm F new & recycled + 10cm 4F WS over buried SH; distinct 5cm P sun CR dwn 55cm; FC & DH below to ground. Snowpack tests CTH produced clean fracture on buried SH layer but no propagation & clean fracture on top of sun CR 2mm FC with stubborn propensity to propagate (ECTPH). Also noted growing & reactive WS on S aspect AtTL. Good riding on recycled pow BTL.
