Comments
Saw these two natural storm slabs, one East facing 9k' looks like it was the depth of this storm's snow, the other wasn't as deep and was on a NNE aspect and somewhat sheltered. Neither slide stepped down to any deeper layers from what I could see. Slope angle estimated around 35-40 degrees.
