Comments
Was hiking along the ridge west of Dog lake and noticed several slides that appeared to be wet loose types. There looked to be 4 separate wet loose slides near the base of the rock band. I also noticed a fifth slide more lookers right in the bowl, which had some tracks leading to the break point of the slide. I'm not sure when they slid, but it seemed at least a day old.
