The avalanche danger is LOW. Watch for isolated pockets of wind slabs in the upper elevations. These shallow slabs will be more sensitive on north-facing aspects, where they rest atop weaker snow. Remember a low avalanche danger, doesn’t mean “no avalanche danger”. Continue to evaluate snow and terrain carefully.
