Comments:
Approx 700ā wide, 500ā+vert. Outside your area near Lincoln, but worth noting. Stupid move that Iām embarrassed about yesterday. Fairly large eastern facing slope that was wind loaded released on older crust. Triggered from the lower/middle left (when looking at photo). Luckily came out the track you can see.
