Went up Observation sub peak south ridge and skied down the Cirque/ Observation col. Most steep slopes in the area had slid during or after the last avalanche cycle. One newer slab observed (24-48 hrs old) off Cirque sub peak north aspect between 2400 m and 2250. The alpine is heavily wind affected and wind scoured on windward slopes.
