Comments
Small but steep slope. I could see some debris and could barely make out a crown. Hard to see in the photo, red line is approx crown or flank. Guessing is ran at a similar time to the slides that occurred in Red Mountain Cirque. Similar elevation and position for wind loading and faceting to occur.
