Brighton Patrol received report of a slide that was "all clear" from Alta Central. Slide was on the East face of Tuscarora. From a distance looked to have been triggered in the 3 or seagull chute and entrained new snow well onto the apron. Report was unclear as to weather it was intentional or not and if anyone was caught

Someone may post more info here, either way thanks for the report

Photo is of an interesting glide crack that opened up with the rain yesterday. This is a solid rock face above the Brighton girls camp. Crack is about 35-40 ft long on 35+ slope and was slowly yawning over the day.
