Pit dug on east aspect of Forum Ridge @ approx. 2100m. 150cm snow pack, CT23 Sudden Planar failure with little propagation at 80cm snow depth. 35 cm of dry, low density storm snow. Very stable conditions, but pay attention tomorrow as the low density storm snow gets redistributed with the wind. Amazing blower pow to be had out there right now, but be careful at lower elevations as sharks can be hiding!
