Observation: Turnagain
Location: Sunburst
Sunburst, right skin track from the parking lot, next to the creek, then traversed farther left to the standard ridge.
Dug a pit at 3500′ and skied back down to the car.
Great skiing above 2200. A supportable crust was noticeable below that and all the way to the car, with 10 cms of snow on top to ski just fine.

Shovel Shear breaking @ 21 cms undersurface.
Grain looked to me like like decomposing particles. (Wondering if was the BSH affected by wind?)
No signs of instability. Still skied a conservative line.
