I noticed this avalanche late this morning. It wasn't there yesterday evening when I passed through the area. I observed significant drifting for much of the day yesterday in the area.
I also noticed this small wind slab release on Cornice Ridge from a good way away, also likely triggered by natural cornice fall.
