Just received a report of a size 3 off Mt. Fairview. It was the first main path that goes down to Sheol Valley to after leaving Saddleback Pass as you head towards Surprise Pass. It involved only the storm snow (about 50 cm), ran from the top of the path, propagated the width of the feature, and ran into Sheol Valley. The observation was made around noon today and likely happened within the last 12 hrs.
