Avalanche Summary

Most slopes have a thin snow cover and are safe from avalanches. The few places you could trigger a small pocket of snow are on high-elevation, north to northeast-facing slopes where winds drifted recent snow into deeper, denser slabs. These features are fairly confined and easy to avoid, but could be dangerous if you get caught by surprise. Cracking along the snow surface or audible collapsing are signs that there is enough snow for an avalanche.
