Comments
I'm guessing this slide released yesterday (4-11-2014) or possibly the day before. Very large crown up on looker's left between Bonkers and the Diving Boards. The other photos looking down show both sides of the Broads Fork drainage with multiple wet-slides. Skied down Bonkers at 9:30am...very nice. FORECASTER COMMENTS: Release time is estimated. Kobernik
