Wind Slab

Approached from the south. Stopped safe distance above chute and remotely triggered slope from atleast 15' away. Adjacent chute to the east had been avalanched by a skier prior to our party. Local east winds were loading this slope providing a much different experience compared with areas (main, upper days) where there was no wind effect.
