Comments

The entire bowl below the Wooley Hole avalanched. We walked up and looked at the crown. We experienced numerous LARGE collapses along the way and were able to get the crown it's self (hangfire) to collapse and spiderweb. This is the west half of the bowl.

Comments

This is the east half of the bowl. All of the obvious path in the photo released and, as far as we could tell, is connected to the east half of the bowl.
