Getting weak, but not unstable...yet
We skinned up Tylers and ran into a group of 4 who just wrapped up digging a pit. They had ECTP18 on the facets at 50 cm (HS 90 cm). We skied into Bear Basin in the Spanky’s area. We dug a pit that also had HS 90 cm. A few ECTNs but nothing concerning other than the thick layer of facets near the ground. Weak but not unstable…yet. The snowpack story seems more similar than not from West Yell to the Bridgers and Cooke. This layer of 2-4mm facets will be an issue with the next decent load, but until then the weakening continues.
