Activity
Skiing
The winds were blowing on top of Ellis Sunday, predominant direction from the SW. New snow approximately 12-15 cms. Dug a hasty pit, 1 meter deep, on a east facing, 30 degree slope at approximately 7700 feet. The slope was seeing light wind loading and the top meter showed no signs of a weak layer, just a gradual increase in density with depth. We saw/experienced no signs of snow instability. The skiing was good, a fun time was had by all.
