Remotely triggered four slides in Main Days, Banana Belt and Days draw. Days draw being the largest one and triggered from about 100' away while traveling on the ridge top. Slides were breaking down slope a fair ways and on slightly mellower slope angles than we anticipated, even with the spike in winds during the late afternoon. Slides appears to break on a very subtle density inversion right on top of the melt freeze crust from last Wednesday and Thursday (20cm above the now dirty snow layer).
