Comments
Remotely triggered, propagated quite wide, several hundred yards. No noticeable settlement as we reached the ridgeline from the south, but it must have went then. Didn't notice the slide until our second time to the ridge. Traversed to Little Water and were able to see full extent (photo). Did not examine crown or bed surface.
