Slide may have been remotely triggered by someone ascending Patsy NE ridge. Slide appeared to have released in the early morning hours on Monday, the 25th. Slide appeared to initiate as a Storm Slab with a significant contributing factor from Wind Loading. It then stepped down in numerous pockets at mid slope into old deeper Faceted Layers.
