Snowpack & Snowpit Observations
Information about the snowpack/snowpit: 

There were not any red flags observed all day. There may have been a small point release slide in the first Bardini chute during the last storm..
Dug a pit around 9,000 ft on a northernly aspect, convex slope of about 35d. ECT 23 Q2, failed at a depth of 40cm. I also dug a pit at the top of the tele-bowls and did not get it to propagate with an ECT test. The skiing was great.
