Photo taken from top of 9269 looking back at the E Face of Reynolds. Wind had already started filling back in the slide path than ran from the peak proper. Looks like the whole face pulled out in pockets.

While driving down canyon a slide could be seen on the E/SE face of Gobblers connecting around the steepening roll half way down the slope. On Raymond the entire N shoulder had run. I wasnt able to stop and take pictures but have circled on the map.
