While at Keith's Hut,chatted to a party of 2 that triggered a Sz 1 storm slab that ran about 15m-20m near Motel 66. The skier was caught and carried, but not buried. Some gear (poles) were lost in the incident.

Start zone was just under a cliff, with a thin, 10cm unsupported windslab that has loose dry powder below. Slab was reported to have broken above the skier.
