Figured Broads Fork probably came unglued during yesterdays, rain event, seemed like all the glide cracks that didn't pull out on our last rain event pulled out on this one. The Diving Board already had a massive glide avalanche after our last rain event and the rest of it got taken out yesterday with another glide avalanche coming off the rock slabs above the apron. Looks to have run three quarters track and left a rock solid pile of debris at the bottom, peeling bark off of good sized trees in the process.
