Comments
Numerous slides in the Mt Aire canyon periphery with the 2' plus of new snow. Likely failing on the new/old snow interface. I have not seen this many slides in the canyon before. Also it is clear that many areas that have not slid yet and are just hanging on. 1 new slide this morning already that is over 200' across and looks to be over 2' deep. Total number of slides visible...6!
