We detect 295 cores (209 starless, and 86 with protostars) in a two square degree shallow survey. We also carry out a deep follow-up survey of 9 regions with low to intermediate ($3<A_V<7$) gas column densities and detect 60 new cores in the deeper survey which allows us to derive a completeness limit. After performing corrections for low signal-to-noise cores, we find a median core mass of $\\sim 2.1 \\text{M}_{\\odot}$ and a median size of $ 0.08$~pc.
