Comments
Skier remotely triggered from about 100 yards below. Did not ski or ride the slope, as we were trying to traverse below. Slide stopped about 2' from skiers tracks. Observed cracking and settling around the same time and after. Also noted activity from earlier in the season on the same slope.(also seen in picture, lookers right)
