Comments

No Name Bowl avalanched wall to wall for the second time this year, it went during the Christmas cycle with the same dimensions. There wasn't as much new snow or wind load as the other slides on the PC Ridgeline thinking it went early in the cycle because the crown was filled in and the debris was covered with new snow and the facets probably could not support much weight.
