I could see this slide from Preston Peak above the Brighton resort. It's in a steep breakover on the edge of Green Slope in the Snake Creek drainage. There does not appear to be any tracks around it so I'm assuming it's a natural wet slab from the strong heating lately. Yesterday would be a good guess. This is a similar slide to one reported in Caribou Basin from probably a couple days ago.
I did not have time to get down there and look at it since I saw it late in the day while skiing around Brighton Perimeter.
