Observed numerous D2 slides at mid-elevations that happened during the storm on the drive to the pass. At treeline 40cm of dense heavy snow off the road. Whumphing in an isolated pocket. Soft and variable conditions higher up. The sun was pumping when it was out and it got hot. The valley filled with clouds on the descent. Saw this unique slide in the picture on a convexity into a terrain trap, looked more recent than the storm debris/crowns.
