Early morning winds were creating sensitive wind slabs on east, north and northwest facing aspects. Observed a natural slide on a NW facing aspect in the cirque just below Logan peak. While traversing around the top of one of the other cirques just west of Logan peak we remotely triggered a wind slab on a NE facing slope that broke about 60ft wide and ran about 500 vertical feet.
