Observed a couple big naturals in Broads Fork today. Most notable was what appeared, from a distance, to be a fresh deep slab release on the backside of O'Sullivan Peak, west of Tanners Col, running to the flats beneath E couloir of Twin Peaks. The closest we got to the crown was the toe of Bonkers, so the dimensions I've provided are estimated. I'm guessing it ran sometime towards the end of the storm on 2/12 or 2/13, as the debris still looked fresh. This is either a repeater on a weakness leftover from the 1/20-1/22 cycle, or a slide on buried surface hoar from 2/3-ish. Significant debris from yesterday's wet-loose activity originating in steep SE facing cliffs above Bonkers.
