Comments
We dug a pit at 9350ft on a NW facing slope near Little Water Peak, approximately 100 feet below the ridgeline. Slope Angle was 18-20 degrees. Snow depth was 255cm. There was a notable crust around 225 with some weak snow above and below. Our compression results were: CT7 at 245 and CT15 at 225. ECTN19 at 245cm and ECTN23 at 225.
We also found the sugary facets around 30-40cm from the ground.
