Observations

On Mt. St. Helens we noticed a large slide several hundred feet wide/long with lots of debris near the bottom that started off a steep SE facing section of Monitor ridge to the west of the main hiking route which showed a deep crown below the cornice. There were tracks near it, suggesting it could have been triggered by skiers/snowboarders over the past few days.
