I dug on a NW upper elevation slope and was a little surprised to find 1.5 meters of snow. Other than our basal facets the snow pack is solid. My ECT failed propagating the entire column in one loading step on my 25 tap with sheer a quality of 2. I thought the snow pack was healing however my test proved otherwise. Although I had to tap 25 times the sheer quality was cleaner than all my previous failed tests so far this season. The basal facets continue to get larger with 4-6 mm facets now comprising most of the bottom 25 cm of snow.
