Comments

Apart from the Farmington road slide already noted and pictured, I noticed another slide probably triggered from snowplow again. I also noted debris in the trees off the ridgeline just above the upper parking lot. I continued up the Francis peak road on foot and skiied a the west facing aspect into Farmington flats, no collapsing or anything worthy of noting. Besides the fact it skiied VERY well! Beautiful new years eve.
