A member of our group got too close to the edge on Tremor and triggered a cornice collapse onto the North face, causing a Sz 2.5 - Sz 3. No one was hurt - but obviously a very close call. Some of the chunks of snow in the debris were 4m x 4m. The north face of Tremor did not appear to have slid in the warming event last Wednesday, and before today's slide the slope looked thin and rocky - I suspect today's slide triggered the PWL.
