Today I joined Jessica, Danny, Eli, and Emilio at the field site where they dug up a pit and looked at the density of the snow at each 10 cm layer. The snow pack was at 122 cm today. Danny also installed 3 pressure sensors into the snow surface (1.1m at 10cm below snow surface (bss), 0.9m at 5cm bss, and 0.8m at 3cm bss) and left the 1.1m open but not in the snow surface. Ethan and Julie headed out to the site later in the day to pull more data from the lidar sd cards. 

Overall, it was a warm and awesome day. Danny, Emilio, and Eli took me skiing in the afternoon for my first taste of powder! The SOS team is making a family dinner again, this time Cincinnati chili (:

Tomorrow we will measure the pressure port separation, look at the uw apogee cable, and try to check out the green comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF).

    Between 2 and 3 am, the fox visited the central tower.  We are very happy that he carefully followed the official approved walking path:
