24cm new snow in the last 24 hours, with 18cm falling the day before (rain/snow mix) as temps rose into the positives yesterday morning. 1-2cm of dry new snow sits on top of approx. 20-25cm of wet, consolidated storm snow. ECT and CT done at the Pump Peak Avy Sign on a NW aspect. No results for either test. With excessive force, ECT failed at rain crust 60cm down. Also with excessive force, CT failed at bottom of recent storm snow approx. 20cm down. Recent snow appears to be consolidating well above the rain crust.
