Observations
Observed many failed cornices adjacent to the Muir snowfield on the south side of Rainier as well as wet loose occuring on the steeper chutes between pan face and the nisqually chutes. I am unsure of the timeline for these events, but it is clear that this warming trend is causing rapid failures.
