Cross loading in low elevation gullies in hyalite
Went climbing in the greater G1 area yesterday. Pockety slide paths and gullies near G2- Hangover were starting to cross load. Slab formation was just beginning (surface cracking and notable propagation.) Slabs did not have the volume to be consequential, yet. There is a lot of AST (thigh deep trail breaking places). These lower elevation paths are often relatively benign since they are generally well protected. A little bit more wind and slab formation could create hazardous travel in this areas with unforgiving runouts.
Debris piles from recent DL and likely SS avalanches were observed under cliff bands and gully features in the area that have likely run naturally throughout this storm cycle.
