 Exiting our Cardiff Fork of BCC is not a place you can turn the blinders on.  There are still a few pieces of terrain of interest.  Down low on the trail near Donut Falls - one can often see slides coming down and pasting the trail - see photo below.  Video details one of two other significant runout zones beneath the east face of Kessler.

 Impressed with last Friday night's wind-induced naturals in Mineral Fork of BCC.  I counted 4 from that evening whereas much of the rest of the east facing Mineral looked pretty ragged from avalanching mid-month.

 Continue to be impressed by the extent of the natural cycle from mid-month.  Below - roughly 9000' well off the ridge line  -
