Observations

Skied nne aspect from 6600'.
Dug pit @ 6550': hs 75cm, 10cm low density snow on top, 50cm of 4 finger that was quite consolidated, then obvious SH stripe at MFcr 60cm down. Below MFcr 10cm of damp and small DH.
ECTP27 SC Q1.
No blowing snow and quite calm for our tour but there was evidence of a fair amount of recently transported snow with thin wind slabs forming in places. Highly variable snowpack depending on aspect/ elevation but N through E aspects were recycled on top in sheltered areas and skiing well as long as you stayed on low angle terrain.
