Quick Observation

We stuck to the lower ridge and loose upper treeline in the bow summit area. While skinning from one run to the next, we noticed what appeared to be a fresh (less than 24 hours) size 1.5 slide. The crown was directly below some exposed rock on a line not typically skied with little tracks to no tracks around, so we suspect it was a natural. It was difficult to tell from our view point if it was two smaller slides that occurred in close proximity or one larger crown.
