Thursday (9th) afternoon heading up Flagstaff Shoulder around 2:15pm and, as expected given the sunshine, saw what appeared to be a couple of wet loose slides. One coming down off Atomic Fireball and another off Toledo Chute (see pics); lots of pinwheels too.

Depth is always hard to determine from such a distance but the one off Atomic seemed as though it had the potential to carry you, if caught.

Both appeared to be naturally triggered, all lines in/around each spot had clean exists.

Be safe out there.
