Was able to trigger multiple small wind slabs with ski cuts in the main Pioneer Chute behind Brighton resort. My partner was also able to trigger at least one being second on the run. The slope was cross loaded with obvious pillows which is where we were able to trigger slides with ski cuts. The wind was blowing in the 20's by my estimate. The riding was better and the winds decreased as we decreased in elevation.
