Mt Ellis Conditions

There is windloading along the ridge line but the snow is pretty unaffected on the face. 

I dug 2 pits at different locations:

Pit #1: ECT N21 N28 

Pit #2: ECTX 

Both pits were on E slopes around 7,800 ft.  Overall feeling good with the snowpack there. It does have a slightly upside down structure but couldn’t get anything to fail.
