This is the pocket that pulled out in No Name naturally yesterday. Bed surface and crown was filled in with a bit of snow, thinking the timing was yesterday afternoon during the strong east wind event. Looks to have pulled out on facets at the ground interface lots of bushes pocking out in the bed surface and a nice debris pile at the bottom. Also looked like a pocket in No No Name pulled out yesterday too, no info on that one just a photo of the debris in the run out.

Photos No Name flank and debris, No No Name debris.
