Snow was very touchy with any slope over 30 degrees popping out and running pretty far. Of note though were two avalanches we believe we remotely triggered from the ridgeline above, likely 20-50' from the crown line. These avalanches were each 100-200' wide and ran the length of the slope. Failure seemed to be happening on two density changes within the storm snow about 6" and 12" or so down. I've toured this zone on what were deemed extreme danger days by the UAC with far less reactivity. Quite exceptional avi conditions for this zone.
