Rolled up on this fresh sled triggered slide just as the dust was settling. One rider side-hilling triggered this 1 finger hard wind slab just off the ridge line. Steady and gusty southwest winds are wind loading this east northeast facing slope. Not a deep slide, but enough to roll and bury a person. Glad the out come on this one was good.
