Re: how

We had some torrential rains in late June/July that brought it down. I'll have a trip report up on it Thursday, but was just adding the images as I had time. This was a real gem! If you're curious though, the report is already up here: http://www.adkhighpeaks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22400

That's just...

...insane. I can't imagine a whole "chunk" of mountain washing down a peak! Crazy!

Sarah,
You should have seen 2011 from Tropical Storm Irene. Here a link to a partial list of the slides it created...dozens and much bigger than this one!
