Next slide path down canyon (north) of Days Draw avalanched. It covered the skin track from 1/2 and didn't have too much new snow on it when we crossed in the morning, so I'm assuming it ran sometime overnight. Soft slab involving new snow only. Couldn't see crown due to snowfall, but ran a good distance down into the runout and took out a few trees.
Although I think new snow instabilities have mostly settled out, seeing this on the way in tempered that thought somewhat and was willing to give things one more day of settlement before pushing into steeper terrain. Poor photos below that show mostly extent of runout.
