While skiing Shafthouse Hill I intentionally trigger a wind slab on a small slope. The slab was actively forming with the new storm snow. I triggered it by ski cutting the slab at the rollover. It broke very easily and was approximately 15cm thick.

Slope angle: 36 degrees

Elevation: 8315’

Weather conditions @ 1130, overcast and moderate snowfall, 18 degrees F, winds SSE 15-20 mph.
