Wet loose south-facing slope remotely broke ~100 ft above where we (party of 4) were skiing on the north face of couloir. We luckily were able to stay out of the slide zone and ski over the debris afterwards. The slide broke above and funneled into a narrow part of the path ~20 ft wide. Occurred around 3:30 pm. 6" deep it where it broke and about 12" at the bottleneck. Spring skiing is fully in effect and an earlier start probably would have prevented the slide. Stay safe out there!
