New Snow

Attempt at Little Pine ended quickly this morning. There were two large debris fields in the apron. One that was smaller and exited more lookers left, and a much larger one that may have run natural late in the day yesterday as there was only a skiff of new snow covering the debris. The larger one ran to within 100 yards of the road. Very large chunks, some as big as a human. Walked up a little farther to try and get headlamps on main chute to see more, but it was too dark and overcast to see much up the chute properly.
