Saw this slide on Cardiac Ridge today, seemed to be new snow only but ended up making a good debris pile at the bottom. I could see a shallow crown up in the top of the chute, it was most likely a wind slab that pulled out naturally during the storm and ran long and fast on the slick melt freeze crust that formed Friday on the E facing. There was allot of sluffing on the ridge and bowl but this was the only one with a crown.
