Observations
Very wet conditions today. The precipitation started as rain at the parking lot (~2pm) but transitioned to snow shortly after starting. Plenty of tree bombs and signs of wet loose on all aspects. The waterfall in particular had several small wet loose slides the slid below the skin track. No other signs of instability, but I was running in trail runners on packed snowshoe trails the entire time.
