Comments
Noted this big slide on the west shoulder of Heaven's Halfpipe after being out of town for a couple days. Not sure when this slid. The crown extends half way across the bowl and looks to have run from 2/3 of the way up down to just above the Second Hamongog. There is a skin track adjacent to the crown on looker's right but no tracks going into the slide. Ski tracks are visible on the opposite (east) shoulder of HH but none close to this slide.
Forecaster Comments- Thanks to Zee-Jay and crew for taking a look at this slide on April 10th. You can read his observation HERE.
