Noticed a natural slide in Todd's Bowl today. There was not much new snow on the bed surface so it would have likely occurred later Thursday or early Friday as the last storm was winding down.

Note that avalanche occurred prior to ascent and adjacent tracks. Trees that are blown over are from the wind storm in September of 2020.
