Photo taken by John Scurlock from his airplane, shows the source area shortly after the slide occurred. This view looks west; Sherman Peak is on the left. Ice blocks the size of cars have piled up in the East Breach, the lowest point on Sherman Crater's rim. Large fumaroles are visible just inside the crater at this point. Hydrothermally altered rock is evident on all exposed rocks slopes in this area.

Photo taken from the summit of Mount Baker by Kevin Hammonds, a USFS climbing ranger. It shows the 3-km debris flow deposit running nearly the full length of the Boulder Glacier.
