Traveled up Willow to the ridgeline above W Monitor. Skied a few laps on the subridge that separates the Monitors. On our exit (around 4:15pm), we triggered a small soft slab in the N facing glades below Willow Knob. Slide seemed to run on a density change within the new snow. No one caught or carried. Slide moved slowly but ran surprisingly far down into the trees (100-150')
