Dickey-in around with Wind Slabs

Climbed/skied Pt. 7180 between Marion and Dickey Creeks to look for wind slabs. 

• Triggered 2 small slides that broke less than a foot deep. The debris ran far and fast because of the slope angle. There were tracks adjacent to each slab before a later skier triggered the slabs. Both slabs released on steep slopes (38* +), one on upper-elvation, northerly slope and the second on a mid-elevation, northwest-facing slope.
• We saw no other signs of instability, and relatively little effect from the southwesterly winds earlier this week. A refrigerator-sized chunk of cornice dropped on a northerly slope produced nothing but sluff and divots.
• A survey of nearby peaks in ok-but-not-great light showed no other slabs. 
• 2 thin sun crusts (Tuesday 3/5 and Friday 3/8) exist on steep southerly slopes with sustained sun exposure. They aren't present on any slope with partial shade or more.
• The 2/2 interface is buried 85 cm below the surface on a southeast facing slope but not reactive in tests.
