Divide Peak

We dug a pit on the east ridge of Divide Peak on a southern aspect at approximately 9760ft. There was a calm breeze from the northwest and the day was mostly sunny. We recorded an HS of 115cm. We observed that the top layer of recent snow/ wind drift (~8cm) slide readily when isolated, but little sluff actually occurred after our group, and many other groups, skied the slope. We recorded an ECTN 8 @ 8cm, and an ECTN 30 @ 74cm. At around 3pm we began to notice the effect of the sun and observed an occasional roller ball on due south aspects.
