Kernpunkte

Stick to simple terrain free from overhead hazard.

Storm slabs have the potential to step down and trigger large, destructive avalanches.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Avoid exposure to overhead avalanche terrain; avalanches may run surprisingly far.
  • Storm slabs in motion may step down to deeper layers resulting in large avalanches.
  • Keep your guard up at lower elevations. Storms slabs have been reactive at all elevations.
