Comments
Gliding has begun in Broads! Noticed multiple cracks along the broads ridgeline and saw one glide that had released on the diving board (more southern edge bordering blue ice). Not too surprising, but definitely a good reminder to keep your distance from areas prone to glide avalanches as spring heats up.
