Cracking in Beehive

From obs: "As we approached the cornice-triggered slide from yesterday below the prayer flags, we stomped around on a low-angle east-facing test slope just south of the slide to assess the presence and character of the slab. Stomping on the test slope yielded 15' plus shooting cracks from my ski tips and remotely triggered cracks about 30' further down the slope below a rollover. A subsequent test slope north of yesterday's slide produced a whumpf. A significant chunk of that cornice is cracked and ready to collapse. While jumping on the test slope almost 100 feet away from the cornice, a small piece broke off and fell onto the slope below. "
