Aspen

Another round of snowfall and stronger westerly winds may increase the avalanche danger in favored areas into Wednesday.

Most slopes are still thin or lack the ingredients to create an avalanche. Steep, north-to-east-facing slopes at higher elevations are the few places to inspect more thoroughly. Stiffer slabs of wind-hardened snow and weaker layers near the ground have been observed on these slopes and should be avoided to help stay safe.
