Comments
Got out to the edge looking into Scott's bowl where there was just a small cornice, was able to drop the small cornice, maybe about The length of a ski, which was enough to set off a storm slab or wind slab. It failed on the harder interface below today's snow. Propagated out wide and ran pretty much to the flats or where the trees begin.
