Quick report

My partner fell chest deep into a crack between the cornice and a rock along the Ridgeline SW of Ferry Peak. Large sagging cornices observed along SE-E. Small skier triggered wet loose on SE off Ferry at ~7500ft, only 2in deep & ski width but widening to many feet across. Evidence of small wind slabs on N near Ferry Peak. Surface hoar on the very top of the ridge, moreso on the E side than the W.
