Avalanche: Toledo Bowl

Pulled out this wind slab on the way up Toledo this afternoon. We wanted to avoid the west aspect and runout of flag (due to strong east winds) on the approach so we tried to enter Toledo bowl from the higher approach via pole line instead. I pulled out this unmanageable wind slab in my opinion just past Toledo chute. Noticed cracking on top of south facing two trees earlier in the day and bailed on skiing south and went back into Cardiff. That red flag should have been enough to keep us off south terrain but the complacency variable between the two of us and the terrain we have skied together lately I feel took over. Winds were blowing and transporting snow on many aspects. Noticed cornices on both sides of ridges in many locations. Between the temps and wind today solar radiation was kept to a minimum. That being said sheltered north was skiing the best.
