Avalanche

SE face of Clover Mountain I have pics but can seem to get any of them to load. I'll email them but you can contact me at snowwave@gmail.com. I have not been on this face but I would guess the average angle is 32. Kinda surprised ( and yet not really with the snowpack and recent avalanches) to see this face go. This pics don't show this well but with the naked eye you can see grass/tundra so looks to have seeped down or loaded the PS on basle facets.
