Slope Where New Boulder Tracks Formed

Where New Boulder Tracks Formed
New boulder tracks formed at this location between November 2003 and Dec 2004. We checked this location in 2008 and saw no new tracks. It’s possible that additional events dislodge boulders and roll down the slope. Are these triggered by seismic events or the wind?
