Quick Observation
We skiied the East face of Columnar around 16:00. On our way up we observed some size 0.5 sluffs/cornice failure (we didnt see the initiation but observed the actual slide). We skiied around some old avalanche debris going down the East face of Columnar. When we reached the previously observed sluffs/cornice failires, we saw 1 or 2 more size 2 wet loose slides. We suspect these were skiier triggered by another party. We had to ski/traverse a little lower as a result. The snow on the return journey was very wet and heavy and travel on flatter sections was hard.
