Lick creek obs
Dug a pit on the east facing slope around 7800'. The snow was 60 cm deep. We got ECTN11 and CT12 RP 15cm down on the old/new snow interface, ECTN16 25cm and CT19 25cm down on a crust.
Also dug a hand pit on a south slope at 6800' to test the new snow and it didn't break easily or cleanly.
We didn't observe any whumphing or cracking.
