9,300 ft North North-East facing aspect.
We got a result of CT 9 and ECT 12 q1 on the same layer 55cm deep.

I think you guys are gonna have to start sending up a forecaster to maid of the mist to start handing out deli counter tickets to the parties lining up to ski pinner ;)
Jokes aside, this photo was taken at the base of the fat maid after our party of 3 bailed. Including us, there were 12 individuals on the base of the fat maid 8 of which were planning to ski the pinner. We decided to opt out of the human factor that was clearly going to lead to some bad decision making, and went and found other terrain to enjoy with far less people.
