Unbeknownst to me, the EVI Parkasaurus Rex has already been built.
I was witness to some fine freestyle X-Games style snowboarding action on my way out to the bus.
I’m gonna give it to him on the landing.
He landed on his head but was o.k.
They were having fun down low.
The tracks tell a story.
Went down the ridge and encountered the wind slab up top with a little emerging cornice.
Snow was dense and wind affected but held and little movement.
Dove into the east side trees near the flats to dig a pit.
It was another storm to warm cycle, and it was balmy again (6 C).
Easy, but not a clean sheer.
That’s just bad.
There was signs of debris in CDC, covered by the recent storm.
What I saw in the pit.
Ground to 35 cms: Fist 2mm facets loose, moist.
35 cms to 85 cms: Four finger .5 mm rounds old storm snow.
85 cms to 110 cms: Fist 3 mm stellars new storm snow.
Ragged shear in the facets when cutting the columns.
