Avalanche Summary

You can trigger small wet avalanches on many slopes as the snow surface warms throughout the day. The more dangerous slopes are those that picked up the most snowfall during the recent storm on Friday and Saturday. Recent snowfall can slide easily on slick crusts below. Travel early for better snow conditions and to stay ahead of the day's wet avalanche concerns.
