Hiked up Weyco Rd off of Keefer FSR. Dug a pit at the bottom of an old cut block on a shoulder. Due to our results we turned around and skied lower angle cut blocks closer to the main road. The storm slab was 35cm thick in this area, and we had a resistant planer result on the small surface hoar layer.
Weather
We didn't observe the higher elevation wind because we turned around after we dug our pit at the bottom.
