Wet loose avalanche observed on the Ben Lomond headwall 4/22/2023 around 1300. Unsure when the avalanche was triggered and unable to see the crown due to low cloud cover over the summit ridge. Could not get more details on the avalanche due to the terrain required to get closer. Ran out from about 9500FT to 7800FT.
