Appears that the whole Headwall above Cutler Creek went during that last storm. Went from near the East shoulder all the way almost to Willard Peak. I could see crowns all the way across both mid slope and near the top just below cornice line. Debris all over the place and it ripped a long ways down cutler creek, well below 7000 feet.
