The info given is for the Cardiac Ridge Slides. Figured we might see a little action on the ridge after seeing a animal triggered slide on High Rustler at Alta this morning. There were a couple slides outta of the NE facing chutes off the top of the Ridge. Makes sense because those chutes have been harboring old faceted snow for a few weeks now. They most likely got overloaded by the NW winds that were cranking this morning and moving a fair amount of snow, most likely cross loading the NE facing chutes.
