There was a natural slide on the north eastern face of Nebo. This seems to be a natural slide likely from heavy wind loading. There was very strong winds coming from the west moving alot of snow and building drifts loading the upper portions of the slope. Checking the snow conditions at approximately 9500ft there is between 115 to 125cm with the bottom foot still very loose faceted snow that's non compactable with a slightly firm bridge that has a layer of faceted snow at about 65cm deep with a ECTP of 15 failing on this mid layer of faceted snow.
