Comments
Significant slide on the hourglass face this morning on HBM. Observed from my living room from 9KM away (sorry for the bad photo). SE aspect at 2050m, crown depth greater than 50cm on west side, tapering to 0 on the east side. Cross loaded slope with visible (observed) deposition over the last few days. About 150m wide and ran into its runout.
