Comments
Remotely triggered the main east face not long after the initial one. Aspect wrapped NE>SE and ran at top of "youngest"/highest/most recent facets beneath the week's storm snow. Interesting to continue to collapse and spiderweb the hangfire as I continued up the ridge to the Reynolds summit.
