Middle Basin

Today Henry and I toured around Middle basin. We dug a pit on a NE slope at 9300’. There were 106cm on the ground. There were multiple faceted layers and two distinct crusts that appeared to be decomposing (see Henry’s snow pilot) Our layer of concern was a crust 30cm off the ground. CT24 SP @30cm, ECTX, PST44/100 (end) @30cm. Although lots of snow available for transport, we did not observe any wind slabs and winds remained calm to light throughout the morning despite obvious blowing snow on lone mountain.
