Skied a chute down the ridge of Montana peak. Ski cut the top and triggered the whole chute 30cm thick, 4F slab not breaking up quickly, which triggered the slope below on the left that propagated 80m. The debris piled up to 1m right under the chute. Avalanche did not run far and was slow moving. No involvement
