Lots of natural activity observed at Rocky Point and Dry Fork today, I went over to look at a crown from a natural and remotely triggered the adjacent terrain from the ridge roughly 2.5’ maybe 3’ deep. Uncertain on the width with the poor visibility and trying to get out of the wind but it propagated at least as far as I could see around the corner. Though wind slab was the driving factor it seemed like there’s some interface issues we might be dealing with for the time being until things at least settle out. Didn’t get any photos because visibility was so poor at times.
