Boom Lake Solar Reactivity

vapelord69, Saturday 5th March, 2022 3:00PM

<p>Skiing in the Boom Lake area on south facing, solar slopes. Intentional ski cut above a convexity triggered a release on a steep convex feature on the Feb 16th layer. The slab released roughly 40cms down and propagated surprisingly far given the size of the feature (30m wide, 30m long). South-East facing feature with intense solar input.</p>
