Comments
We headed up little pine today and decided to bail at 9600'. It had previously slid and there was a spotty 8-10" slab on top of the bed surface. The bed surface was faceted and sheared with moderate pressure in our hasty pits. Still lots of season left no reason to push it now! Photos are of the Flanks/crowns (not sure if it slid multiple times) of the slide
