A tiny amount of new snow on Christmas Day will not raise the danger, but it may hide visual clues about where snow drifted days before. You might trigger a slab avalanche from the edges of stiff wind-drifted snow in gullies, or below ridgelines. Expect to push loose avalanches at lower elevations on very steep slopes covered in soft, weak snow.
