Comments
We spotted a good size natural wet slide today on Cardiac Ridge that probably happened with warming Sunday. Probably consisted of a lot of that heavier wet snow that fell on 10/23. Visibility wasn't great but you could see it ran about 700' vert, entraining a decent amount of snow. Some large pinwheels and clinkers in there.
