Observations

Did not see this Avalanche myself but this video is making its way around social media which I think would be good for the folks at NWAC to see. What is more concerning is that people are out hiking along the summer trail of Granite Mtn despite the Considerable/High forecast for Sunday - https://www.tiktok.com/@codyf34/video/6914414921128201478
