Triggered by a different group of sledders, look closely for side-hill entering on lookers right flank. There didn't appear to be an involvement, the group moved on and we weren't able to talk with them. We had been below the slope earlier in the day, decided to move elsewhere as the south aspect was receiving a lot of solar radiation and increasing wind.
