Mt Ellis (main summit)
Date
Activity
Skiing
Ellis has seen alot of skier traffic since my last submission for Ellis on December 15, 2022. A quick pit was dug on a south east facing slope at 7936 feet. Height of snow = 90 cm. Bottom faceted layer was 25 cm thick. The top 65 cm of snow is beginning to consolidate into a slab. We did not experience any signs of snow instabilty. My previous submitted observation for Ellis noted surface sluffs, yesterday we had none. I believe there was a slight temperature inversion as we all remained comfortable.
