Taylor Fork surface hoar

A layer of surface hoar was buried with this last storm. It is easy to find it and test; just shovel down 1-2 feet and cut a column. I could see the grains in my pit wall, but it did not break in Compression Tests or Extended Column Tests. This is good news, but it's distribution and stability is not definitively known yet. We will continue to look for it and test it. Photo: GNFAC
