Dangerous avalanche conditions exist on Friday. Avoid traveling on or under slopes steeper than about 30 degrees. You can trigger avalanches in the new snow on all aspects. Avalanches will be larger and easier to trigger on north through east to southeast-facing slopes where strong winds will build thicker, denser slabs.
If you trigger an avalanche in the new snow, it can step down to deeper buried weak layers resulting in a large dangerous avalanche. This is particularly true on northeast, east, southeast, and south-facing slopes where there are weak layers in the upper snowpack.
