Comments
I saw these slides on Saturday however the sky was too overcast to snap some photos. Here are pics from our sunny Sunday. I had been in the area several days prior so I know these occured during the last storm cycle. This is a mid-elevation east facing slope. It appears the snow pack failed on the basal facets. Total width of all the slides is 1200 ft.
