Gunnison

Generally safe avalanche conditions exist. You might be able to trigger a loose avalanche in cohesionless, wet snow on sunny slopes in the afternoon. You might also be able to trigger a small avalanche on wind-loaded slopes such as an easterly-facing couloir in extreme terrain as winds increase throughout the day Saturday. Avoid slopes with terrain traps such as cliffs or a creek below you if you encounter a wet snow surface on sunny slopes or a hard, hollow feel to the snow surface on wind-loaded slopes.
