Lots of debris below the head walls. And then lower down near the bottom where it got very wet and heavy. Heard an Avalanche coming off the headwall while digging a pit but did not see it. Consistent CTM-12 - 20cms down of the recent storm snow on crust. Could not get anything to fail below that. Temperature 0, periodic graupel
