Observations
We triggered a few 6-8” small soft slabs in the wind exposed section at the top of the slot that were fairly inconsequential. The slabs were not particularly cohesive. Possibly enough to knock you off your feet, possibly not. The the interface was noticeable in more exposed areas, but buried in more stable snow lower down.
