Comments
We were looking to do some investigating of North facing slopes. After making sure no one was below; We dropped a refrigerator sized cornice on top of Days headwall? (between Oingo and Two Days). The cornice was old and firm. It slide down the slope plowing the snow. It did not break apart as far as I could see. There was no propagation or stepping down.
Picture from the bottom of Two Days. Sorry about the photo, it was another beautiful day in the Wasatch and the sun was making it difficult to see in the camera to focus.
