Observed the aftermath of a glide avalanche in Coldwater Canyon. Likely occurred last week. Appeared to only have sloughed 10'. Was out of town for two weeks, and ventured into the canyon to assess conditions. Naturals also occured down the main chutes in the canyon traveling what appeared to be 300+ feet. You wouldn't want to be caught in that terrain trap with conditions less than ideal. There was also aproximately 2-3" thick of hard crust on the top layer from wet snowfall/temps rising. Not exactly a great ride down, except in the trees up high, but worth going to see current conditions. Only saw a couple other ski tracks, looks like everyone was being cautious and avoiding the main open chutes, be safe & have fun out there
