Quick Observation
Group of 2 trigered two slabs while climbing the south ridge. The slab thickness was up to 100cm at some places. We were both safe on the ridge when the incident happened. We then decided to bailed and broke a second slab on the way down. Same observation on the second one. The slope was steep and unsupported.
