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.
