Travelled on the summer trail to the summit of Cascade. Turned around before reaching the last pitch due to overhead hazard (cornice), cross loading and unsupported slope we had to cross. On the way down, we skied our skin track, ski triggered Sz2.5, ran approx. 300m,30m wide, 50cm deep @ 2500- 2600m on a SW aspect.
