Comments
Triggered a sizeable wind slab in the Georges bowl area. Easily skied off of it however and watched it go about half track. It was an obvious wind pillow below some cornices. Would call this manageable in everything except extreme terrain. No pictures because the greenhouse fog wouldn't cooperate with my camera.
