Acidopholous zone. Obvious wind loading on ridge and lee slope from overnight storm snow. Felt and looked slabby from the ridge top. Gave the ridge a few strong stomps from a safe vantage point. Remote triggered several 1-1.5 wind slabs failing along the cornices and/or steep convexities along the ridge. Crowns roughly 15-25cm deep, sliding on the previous day’s surface snow. Back off and skied lil mucker instead.
