A group in the ridge just east of Davenport peak said they triggers this cornice fall while on the track and that it broke 3’ out from the track around 12:15. It was huge and took out tracks and snapped trees. Looked like a crown from below that was 1’ deep though I couldn’t see the flanks. One photo below is of the cornice several

weeks ago. It was impressive.
