Comments
Found this debris pile just off the summer trail at about 6000' that likely released last week. Looks to have had started from very steep and rocky NW and N aspects that merged in a vertical gully and terminated in a gully terrain trap. The debris pile was easily deep enough to bury a person in the terrain trap, Size D2.
