Notes

From obs: "Yesterday afternoon, 1/14, saw lots of roller balls and a few sizable sluffs come down around the dribbles area. This morning lots of small sluffs coming down around bingo cave as soon as the sun hit it. Noticeably heavy, wet snow on solar slopes as well."

From obs: "Things were really moving by mid morning. The trail along Unnamed Wall was buried in several places by wet slides as the wall warmed. Some were big enough to take you down. We did not see any movement on the other side of the valley."
