Remotely triggered by ski party into the Beartrap Gulley. Pitch just above the gulley is quite steep. The rest of lower rollovers had naturalled Saturday eve into early Sunday. Their remote was one of the last pieces of terrain that hadn't released.
Cracking and collapsing noted as well along the south Bear/Mule ridgeline.
One can tell the dramatic difference between the coase grained facets and the overlying Wednesday night through Sunday slab.
