Spotted from Little Water Peak: this natural ripped out in the trees behind sheep shit ridge. ...spooky... It looked to be several feet deep and blocks of debris were visible from a distance. Pretty far down from the ridge line. Didn't appear to have any tracks or other releases nearby to trigger, so I suspect it was wind load from what had clearly been stiff Southerly winds over the adjacent ridge.
