Skied from kicking horse the last 2 days, both days went North to the Molar area. Noticed lots of wind slabs on N and NE aspects. Today I saw 1 size 2, wasn’t there yesterday, off the lower ridge of the ozone NE aspect, 1800m. 20 to 70 deep, 200m wide and 150m long. Also felt some settlements in the snow pack. I skied fairly conservative lines and used the terrain to minimize our exposure. I felt like it would be easy to trigger slides on the big lines that we often ski out there so heads up. The Jan 26 facets are down roughly 50 to 70cm’s and I was getting moderate results. The top 20 was easily ski triggered and was propagating but not running far where I was testing. Great skiing out there but my confidence was low for any of the big lines.
