Comments
On our ride up in the morning the left side of the slope had broken and run it's full path, on the ride out we noticed the other side has broken and run the full path. As we rode around the area we observed a lot of cracking and whumping. Wind loading was very apparent. Those leeward sides of the mountain are getting very reactive.
