Up to 10 inches of wet snow over wet , occasionally punchy snow. No, I’m not a navy expert, so not sure exactly what you are looking for, but ...it was very active day for an all green 'rose.' At about 11AM saw two dry sluffs come off of cliffs above couloir, then a not insignificant dry sluff , preceded by a whompf came down the middle as we were preparing for our retreat while nobly hiding under a large rock. During descent the large wet sluff/avy self released above us and cascaded around the rock we were currently taking a breather behind. It traveled at moderate speed, full width of couloir, for 150 yards. We continued to run away bravely.
