Comments
Was in the area yesterday and today and did not see this yesterday, so I assume this occurred either overnight or sometime this morning as a result of wind loading. Estimate is that this is 1-2' deep. Clearly touchy out there!
touchy.
Over the years, I've seen cornices build up on this ridge, but I've never seen it slide like this with the length of the runout.
