Comments
Triggered a reasonably fast moving, albeit relatively shallow(10-15cm), wind slab on Piran today. East slope, close to summit. Managed to ski out of it to the right. Slab ran for roughly 500m before stopping before some shorter trees down the path, and . Summited Piran with no issue or unstable feelings, and figured the ski down would be the same. No injuries, good experience to learn from, but I'd rather not repeat it.
