Comments

Avalanches pictured below are: Sunset and Patsy Marley. Picture of the Wolverine Cirque did not come out well due to back lighting when taken. Of Note: the crowns in this area have been blown in in many locations and are becoming more increasingly difficult to detect. The pictures from Kickert need to be utilized to differentiate what really went on back there during the Cycle.
