When we drove on the road, we quickly realized that there was way more snow than forecasted. We decided to be even more conservative. Temperatures were very consistent around -2 all afternoon. It was SNOWING and we needed it! We decided to dig a pit and here is what we found: Snowpack: -Bottom to 80cm was pure facets. -Various crusts between 80 to 95cm. -Pow from 95 to 175cm (fluffier as you got up). We decided to do ECTP. Here is the results: -ECTP2 at 145cm (storm slab) -ECTP13 at 85cm (persistant slab) Very fun and insightful day out!
