Lots of evidence of new slides and sluffs. This particular slide has forged an unusual new swath/path. It has typically run down and followed the contour of the slope going to the south. When we have gone up there we have stayed to the north up in/ by the old growth trees that use to be there!! The new path went to the north and down about 200 yards into the old growth leveling all. Be careful everyone. Just when you believe you are being safe parking in those safe zones for lunch.
