Comments
As expected, Broads Fork is starting to fall apart from glide avalanches. Went up Twins early Saturday morning, and saw the debris from at least 3 massive glide avalanches from the northeast face of Twins, to the northeast face of Bonkers. These are full releases of multiple feet of snow/ice from the rock faces. Not sure when they occurred.
