Comments

Noted the Tutshi's 2 big slide paths (E facing) ran within last 24 hrs (can't remember mile posts - but the ones that slide most frequently, and typically run full path across the highway) and we also noted a natural size 2 on a corniced E facing lee feature at ~12pm high in the alpine where the winds were strong and steady from the SW all day (see pinpoint). Lots of snow settlement off the trees all day.
