Observation Details
Spot probed while moving. Majority of the slide was 20-40cm thick with a 5mm ice crust on top, then rounds making up half the snow pack, another 5mm ice crust, and rounding facets going to ground. Small isolated pockets of wind drifted snow in leeward/sheltered areas up to 1m deep, primarily along the edges of the slide. Very headwall on skiers left lacked upper ice crust.
