Comments
Third time I have typed this so sorry its short.
I am still uncertain about lower elevation snowpacks. This is an interesting avalanche in an interesting spot. I feel that on southerlies the problem may be healing but I dont know how widespread this is around the zone. I still feel that spacial variability is high with the avalanche problem. Layer was unreactive in ECT times 2. I did fail the older snow underneath Q3
