The avalanche danger is increasing due to new snow and strong winds. You can trigger an avalanche on steep slopes above treeline that face north, northeast, and east. You can reduce your chance of triggering an avalanche by avoiding wind-drifted slopes steeper than about 35 degrees. Move to lower-angle terrain If you encounter more than 10 inches of new snow or you experience cracking/collapsing.
