My partners and I were booting up crows foot lookers left of the fork, we dug a pit and saw some new storm instability. We decided to ski down and go up the right fork since it appeared to have already slid, at this point we decided to turn around since the visibility was terrible and we couldn't see the upper section of the line. The first person dropped and luckily stopped at the fork in a safe location and the left fork slid due to a wet slide. We were in cloud coverage the whole day not realizing that the top section of the line was getting baked by the sun. We got greedy wanting to ski more, not paying attention to time, and also not thinking about how the upper face could be heating up. This experience was humbling and could of killed all of us.
