This profile was taken about 100 feet north of the flank of fatal avalanche. We did not do a crown profile because there was too much hangfire. The weak layer was a layer of very light snow that faceted slightly between Christmas and New Years. Ten days ago and 5 miles south, we consistently got ECTP5 to ECTP15 on this layer. In the same area 5 days ago we got inconsistent ECT results, the ones that were ECTP had scores in the low 20s.
In this pit the ECTN fractured across half the column.
