Comments
Numerous tracks already skied down the N face of Patsey. Ski cut through the remaining pocket of fresh snow first saw shooting cracks, heard the collaspe, and then triggered remote slide. Ski cut to right kept me out of the fall line. Always check your fall line and always send the the big guy (250+ with all gear on) first to take the cut.
