Comments
Crows Foot slide path slide during the storm cycle over Christmas Day, new snow on debris pile represented the latest storm cycle. The debris pile was 30-50ft deep and 300 yards long, pretty good sized for this early in the season. Last years slides during February in this area were extraordinary in size. Snow depth at 8300ft was 45-50" no other avalanche activity was observed, none of the dozen or so side paths off of the West face of Cascade Peak have slide but this one so far this season.
