Remote Trigger near Sugar Loaf (Anaconda)

A small slide was remotely triggered by the second skier catching up to the first skier.  We were skiing mellow terrain on the east side of a small ridge and remotely triggered the slide at a roll over point on the north aspect of the ridge.  Prior to skiing we conducted an extended column test on a near by north slope with good results but kept our path mellow do to some wind affect areas we noticed on the west side of the ridges. We skied to the debris pile after the slide stopped to take a picture and would estimate it broke 30 cm down at the base of the new snow over the last week.
