Got 4 laps in yesterday morning/early afternoon. The goods are quite nice.

Around 1, there was, what looked like a natural that broke off a convexity most of the way down the spine underneath the Cell tower building. I didn't see tracks into the crown, which is why I thought it a natural. ~50cm crown/75 feet across. It didn't propoate into the adjacent, lower angle slope (though the cracks tried), though it's path was right on the 38 degree bulls-eye.  It slid for 100 feet or so into some trees.  No beeps within. 

There's nice snow around (bring a face-mask.) Be careful. That weak layer doesn't appear to be going anywhere.
