Dug a pit on the north aspect of the eastern end of mount Plewman ridge, more precisely just below Cutblock Peak summit. Moderate (7th elbow tap) fracture down 75cm. Did not collapse until 10th tap. No other weak layer noticed. Dug down to approx 170cm only. Fair amount of sluffing from the top 10cm. This seems to be inconsistent with other observations in the area, ie the MIN about a size 1 on W aspect in Lepsoe basin. Take this info for what it is and don’t generalize :) Amazing riding conditions.
