<p>SA size .5 wind slab on N aspect just at base of Cassiope summit head wall. Partial burial no injury. Interesting slab formed against base of rock wall by winds pushing snow up slope. 5 cm crown but up to 50 cm deep in places. Only ran 50’ but enough to sweep skier off feet and partially bury. </p>
