        We skied a number of different drainages and aspects today, overall snow did not seem to have much of a slab and we had previously only noted dry loose slides. After putting in a ski cut across the slope I looked back and noticed this first slide that broke shallow, but wider than expected. This one ran a couple hundred feet. After skiing down further I was able to trigger more storm slab slides, some of which ran over 600ft and where breaking about 10" deep (it was hard to tell due to poor visibility at the time). This was the only place I noticed the snow sliding like this today. In this area, the snow had a slick bed surface, a steep angle, and not enough time to bond with the old snow.
