More on glide

This massive snow 'boulder' is one of the pieces of debris of the glide avalanche reported. The crown wall is visible from the A93 just south of Glenshee Ski Centre on the Glas Maol/Carn Leacach side of the glen. We estimate this boulder has a mass of about 80 tonnes. Thanks to Malcolm MacIntyre of BMRT for the photo.
