Quick report
- Collapsing
- isolated
We could see some older slides off the cirque aera, both looked to have started near rocks. And lots of rolling snow off rocks. Was able to toss snow and start a rollypoly to a decent size on the east facing stuff. 10 trys and 2 rollypolys that were a foot in diameter. Did experience some settling/whomp snow by some wind loaded rocks. Still early season conditions. And definitely hit a few rocks this day as well. And as a hero of mine says or something close to it. If they're not rocks skis, your making them into rock skis. Have a good season.

After reviewing this public observation, KPAC added this ~D1.5 avalanche to the avalanche database. Appears to be a soft slab avalanche that occurred late in the Nov. 22/23 storm, or possibly during the subsequent ~NW wind event.
