Comments
I received this photo secondhand from a friend. I believe it was taken today 4/15. It looks like most slides were D2 wet slabs. But one was directly below a glide crack and may have been related to a glide crack releasing.
Glide cracks are present on the Chilly Peak Slabs, but have not yet released.
