General Observations

Skinned up the road that parallels McCallum Creek and headed up to the peak North of the road ( I don't know the name)  through a large drainage. Observed variable conditions and snow depths while skinning, a little punchy and thin at times. Wind has affected the snow and there was a loose layer on top varying from 1 inch to a few inches. Observed some natural slides in some smaller gullies with a West aspect. ECT on slope skied, no result. Shovel shear showed a small weak layer at 30cm.
