Avalanches have become less frequent and harder to trigger, but the potential consequences remain concerning. Recently drifted slopes on shadier aspects are the most risky and likely places to trigger a dangerous slide. Avoiding stiffer wind-deposited slabs below ridges or steep breakovers, and seeking out softer snow in sheltered areas, will help keep you safe.
