I should have included in my last report that these tests:
We found a resistant planar shear yielding hard results on compression tests, and a hard result that did not propagate on an extended column test (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwXW7NIzlBo&feature=related). Both tests produced this resistant planar shear down about 70 cms on April 4th, I'd guess this layer to be down about 1 meter now. were conducted on a northeast aspect at about 6200 feet -treeline on the Triangle Moraine.
Happy trails,
