My main objective today was to take a quick look at the new snow and to test the new snow penetrometer device from Avatech. I dug in a location I use frequently in Albion Basin where there is no skier traffic. I dug a pit to manually look at the layering and the hand-hardness. I also used the electronic probe right next to the pit wall. I'm pretty impressed that the electronic probe produced a very similar profile (image below) to what I was seeing in my manual observations.
