dug in the alder gulch cone. variable snow depth in stillwater bowl.

Quick and dirty pit- didn't take detailed measurements- more of a loose representation of structure. Crusts aren't super hard and have the possibility of sublimating out depending on Wx. Faceting earlier in October when it was clear and cold. Damp, warm Wx under cloudy skies of late has kept the snowpack from weakening further. Conditionally stable.
