Comments
Sluffs were running long and fast today. Noticed the main path of toots had went already went we arrived (natural cornice fall), we skied adjacent to debris. On second lap started over the ridge skiers right, I cut across a small rollover and watched the sluffs clean out the entire slope. Definitely touchy everywhere else as well.
