Skier triggered storm snow release ~10” deep on the way up to pineapple pass. We observed several storm slabs with propagation from 10 feet in length to 100’ on E/NE slopes and convexities. We were mindful of terrain traps and convexities on the way down and enjoyed excellent coverage and conditions.
