Approached a steep rollover and stopped intentionally(safe spot), waited for my buddy to catch up...We were aware of the somewhat steeper rollover and approached with caution...we stood there for about a second and the slope slid... cracks propagated to where I was standing. Seems like east aspects may be a bit more sensitive...might be a bit more snow sitting on the surface hoar??
Need to be cautious on sudden changes in aspect...rollovers, gullies etc...new snow on buried surface hoar
