2 CTs done, CTM 13, CTM 15. Both Resistant planar on what I assume was the Jan 2nd, which was down 50. This was in the little gully shoulder on the SW of Mackenzie. Both tests were kinda spooky and I was shocked how little HS was there. No surface hoar to be found. That Jan 2nd crust 50cm down was decomposing and 1F+ with 2cm of 4f snow underneath
