Kernpunkte
The avalanche danger is LOW, and the snow is mostly stable. Watch for fresh pockets of wind-drifted snow in exposed terrain at the mid and upper elevations. These drifts may be up to six inches deep and 15 feet wide. Also watch for loose-dry avalanches on steep, sheltered, north-facing slopes. Although small, these slides can entrain enough snow to create a hazard in steep terrain.
