I found this nice little hard slab just north of Tony Grove Lake off the route to Naomi Peak....... Looking south

Comments

The classic slab avalanche was 3 or 4 feet deep...

Comments

Tracks near the site and only a little snow on the bed surface indicate that this could have been a remote triggered avalanche, triggered from the flats below......
