Was impressed with sensitivity of the slabs and low angle of slope, as well as the amount of propagation
We were fortunate to find these at the beginning of today's storm. If these layers were buried they would have posed significant risk, and would have not been as obvious of a hazard. It concerns me for other wind loaded area with an extremely unstable base. I will be staying on very low angle for the next while as these trouble spots are not going to be as obvious after this storm.
