Comments
Spotted from the highway on south facing slope, looker right of the Halcyon gully. Poor light but think crown is above the arrow pointing to the debris. Area received atleast 10 cm of snow overnight so covering crown. Very windy and heard wind switched from north to south on Wed, Mar4 from folks who camped out in White Pass for the week. We went to ski at Log Cabin with everyone else.
