Quick Observation

Saw large avalanche debris in upper part of Professor Falls from highway yesterday. Thought we would do a quick lap of the first couple of pitches very early this AM (still below freezing). We ran into very large blocks of avalanche debris piled up well before we got to the base of the climb. Pitch one has only about the top 1/4 left above the debris. The anchors at the top of the pitch were well buried. The anchors at the top of the second pitch are still available and un-damaged.
