Steep rocky areas connected to more extensive wind-drifted slopes are where you are most likely to trigger aa avalanche. You could trigger a slide in surface wind drifts but a more deadly concern is if these slides step down to the ground taking the whole seasons snowpack. You will not get any warning and multiple people could travel on a slope before you find a weaker area and trigger an avalanche. You can find safer travel on lower-angled slopes and those sheltered from the wind.
