Planned to ski Wolverine Cirque but bailed at Patsy saddle due to significantly stronger winds than forecast. On our way down twin lakes pass, we came across a wind loaded rollover that was much steeper than the surrounding terrain. I ski cut at the top of the steep aspect and the slope broke a few feet above me. The slide then propagated another 15' across and stepped down to a ~10" crown.
