Signs of Unstable Snow

While touring up past Mono Jim today I saw the impressive debris and crown fracture line from the 4/29 skier triggered Wet Slab. What stood out to me today though was that in the gully directly north of it, there was evidence of another huge slide that slid later. I appears that it was a natural failure of the extensive glide cracks that have been lurking up there. It likely ran at some point last weekend during the warm temperatures. The slide ran to the ground and added another huge debris pile to the one already there.
