I was out more as a spectator today. Snow quite reactive in areas of deposition. Skied ridge, came to the top of the line and it slid. I wasn't going to ski this line. It has slid before when I've done the same thing in the past. There were roughly 5 other slides but looked as if they were during the most recent storm. Great day to stay safe and observe. BTW, it slid on a rain or sun crust.
