A snowmobiler set slab release (IMHO) on the leeward, snow laden, east facing unsuspecting little "roller". This was from Friday. About 40 meters across and the fracture line definitely shows the various layers and was about 2 meters thick. Definitely enough to do some serious damage to a rider caught in the trees. The first picture shows a snowmobile track above and with my limited knowledge, I would suspect that was the trigger.
