Comments

snow depth was about 60-70 cm. The weakest snow was about 20cm off the ground, structureless facets. The "slab" on top failed and propagated upon isolation. The slab itself is barely cohesive and felt apart while continuing the ECT. Skiing down anything but low angle slopes sends you to straight to the ground.
