Very impressive, tree snapping natural avy which looked like it ran very early this morning. Not particularly deep, but quite connected, pulling the rug out from the ridges and entraining a tremendous amount of volume.
Image with my shovel reveals a 1 finger slab resting on 4 finger facet/thin heat crust interface. Elsewhere everything broke to the dirt.
