Dangerous avalanche conditions exist. Elevated winds are drifting recent storm snow into cohesive slabs. The most dangerous slopes are near and above treeline, where slabs two to three feet deep have developed.
If you experience cracking in the new snow or feel a collapse, this is a sign of unstable snow, and you should seek out lower-angled terrain that is not connected to steep terrain above.
