Comments
Spotted this old avalanche from our ski tour. This was in the Commissary Fork/Slader Ridge adjacent to Weber Canyon.
Our educated guess (or uneducated?) was that this occurred around December 9th 2023.
Fx'er note-
Thanks Sam... good eyes... you're on it!
I think you're obs date is real close. I observed a slide with similar in characteristics in Upper Chalk Creek and dated occurrence as Dec. 10th
