Shooting cracks developed in wind slab at top of main line triggering some remote sluff to skier's right of mainline. Crown depth variable from shallow to ~25 cms. This was likely new storm snow that fell after Monday this week. Only latest storm snow slid, the sluff did not step down. Sluff ran to the bottom of the run, to about where the fan begins. Size would be about 1 to 1.5. Not much evidence of high winds in the area (i.e. new storm snow still on trees), especially compared to typical conditions for mainline area.
