Our AERIE Med AAA Level 1 avalanche course took a tour through some meadows off of Jack Creek road to assess the snowpack. We found some various layers, notable a couple inches of fresh snow and groupel on top, a stout 10 cm, melt/freeze crust down 5 cm from surface, and 20 cm of rounding depth hoar at the base of the snowpack. The following is a summary of our stability tests.
