Comments
Widespread Wet Loose Observed. Photo of Tuscarora Bowl just one example of what was observed. From Sunset Peak down the east ridge through 8-Ball there were multiple Wet Loose Avalanches that were obviously new within the past 48 hours. Of interest was a glimpse of what appeared to be a Cornice Release Avalanche that occurred just above the cliffs in between Rocky Points and Sunset proper. Unfortunately, I did not have an angle to capture this activity with my camera.
