Was at the top of Wolverine Cirque, THC(The Huge Chute) the skiers right side had a small pocket of powder/soft slab about 3 turn lengths! Dropped in with a ski cut and nothing happened, executed 1 turn and the slab broke below my feet! I was able to ski left and avoid getting carried but definitely got caught but had enough inertia and control to ski left as it slid down! D1, R1 rating is what I would give it! The video is the best way to see the avalanche and how big it was!
