At 2:12PM, we were witness to a class 3 on Wolf Peak's S.W. ridge. Viewed safely from across the valley on top of Buzz Ridge. Solar warming activated a persistent slab 50 to 70cm down giving us a good show. 120M across. Start zone was approximately 2000M running to valley bottom around 1700M into the power line. There was a step-down to ground about half way. Check out the photo.
