HS-N-R4-D3-G/O NE aspect 12500' Slide occurred maybe 3/28-3/29. Could be a possible cornice fall, but we didn't want to get close to check. VERY large cornice. Couldn't get good eyes on the debris til 3/31. The center paths of Half Dome slide in the cycle end of Feb and deposited 10-15' of debris above the bench. The new debris field has over taken the bench, debris depth is unknown.
