Comments
I noticed this slide from across canyon at Alta and it looked to be a result of wind loading from the strong west wind. Also observed in the image was prominent wind transport from that west wind.
Fx'er note: This slide was likely triggered on Tuesday morning by UDOT with one of their GAZEX installations
