Warm day in the alpine. Saw nothing move, but evidence of slabs releasing in steep rocky terrain on all aspects. Probed 300+ at test site. Coverage varied a lot depending on elevation and aspect. Lots of wind effect up high. Dug down 1m, CTM11 down 35cm on crust prior to last storm, CTM15 down 50cm. A non reactive layer @70cm. 4 cm melt freeze made for good travel until it melted. Real soft in valley by end of day.
