Comments
Burn scar from 2021 Parleys Canyon fire. ECT did not get a result, however there is still a weak faceted layer and a large cohesive slab that pulled out readily. We skied an adjacent slope. In pockets there were light slabs within the new snow layer that cracked and propagated short distances.
