We found ourselves on the west side of reeds benson ridge to start the day. The snow was rather wind effected and releasing in small pockets. As we got over the ridge the top portion of the east facing slope was wind effected, skiing down we released a few loose slufs. On the way down I noticed six loose slufs that look to have failed on the old new snow interface.
