Weather

Clear and sunny early afternoon, becoming overcast later in the day. Moderate Easterly wind near the summit late afternoon.

Snowpack

Two compression tests without result, on 35 degree slope. But upon dropping the pillars (for science!) They both broke clean across facet layer noted down 65. Some pinwheels noted in the area when the sun was out. Depth deeper than my probe!
