Observations
Doing the common tour up Christmas tree bowl, we got started a little late but we’re up there a little after noon or 1 o clock. There were some other skiers out before us and we didn’t see activity on the way up. But several times as we descended we triggered small slabs to release. One caught me and slid me a few feet and I was buried up to my knees.
