Lo esencial

We have a generally LOW avalanche danger today.

There may be some fresh drifts that a person could trigger near the ridgelines on north through east facing steep slopes.

We may see some minor wet activity involving the new snow later in the day as things heat up.

    The new snow combined with strong wind most likely formed some fresh drifts along and just below the ridges. These won't pose much threat of buring a person if you should trigger one. However, they may boss you around enough to knock you down. The most likely places to find trouble are high elevation northeast facing steep slopes just below the ridgelines. Also, watch these drifts as daytime heating occurs. There could be some cornices that break off during today's warm up.

Special Announcement

Today is the last regularly scheduled avalanche forecast of the season. I'll do intermittent updates during significant storms through the end of the month.
