You can expect generally safe avalanche conditions on most steep slopes. Many of these avalanched a week ago and now are not dangerous. You can recognize these by the crown face near the top, or the lumpy debris piled below a slope.

If you can find a steep slope that did not avalanche the snowpack is generally around three to five feet deep. To avoid an unlucky surprise, track the snowpack if you venture into extreme terrain. Steer around very steep terrain features with an intact snowpack (meaning it did not avalanche last week) where you find a shallower-than-average snowpack, in the two-foot deep range.
