Observations
2 of my friends skied down the right line of Silver Twins. I went third and opted for untracked snow on skier's left after the top of the couloir. The slab released from about 15-20ft above me and traveled about 75-100ft. It was small and localized to this specific terrain angle. Crown was about 8 inches but hard to tell in the flat light and fog.
