Notes
From an obs.: "Large crown in lower meadows west side of beehive basin above jack creek. Both meadows in lower fight of photo went. Southwest aspect. Far right meadow crown is visible and entire face went. Left meadow is hard to see but 1/3 of face slid. I would guess 3-6 foot crown from how visible it was from moonlight."
Another report: "Observed good size crowns from Beehive Basin Road. They were on the west side of the ridge dividing Beehive Basin and Jack Creek. They were not down to the ground but big and wide looked like probably all the recent snow from the storm."
