2010 Ledge Trail rock fall

A dust cloud rises from an angled ledge on the middle of a steep cliff.

A rock fall was reported from Glacier Point behind Curry Village. A single block fell from the rock fall source area onto the Ledge Trail, which produced a small dust cloud. No debris visibly traveled beyond (downslope of) the Ledge Trail ledge.
