Comments
While on the ridge between cardiff and mineral today we saw an avalanche from early in the week. Likely after our last storm cycle that looked to be a natural event in the steep skiers left side. It appeared to be the entirety of the storm sliding on the old snow surface. We watched two folks ski the right steep shot on the same representive slope 40' away seeming to not be worried of the slide?
