Comments:
Possible glide avalanche? off of rocks in bowl east of middle moraine, white river canyon.

Traveled middle moraine at White River 10:00--14:00. Very soft afternoon snow conditions. Appeared stable with minor post-holing near rocks. Avalanche looks to have released on steep rocky terrain naturally.
