Avalanche Summary

You can expect generally safe avalanche conditions. Steer around isolated wind-drifted features on northerly or easterly-facing alpine slopes. Look for and avoid drifted areas. Likely spots are below ridgelines, downwind of terrain features, or along gully walls. A small avalanche in very steep or consequential terrain above cliffs could be dangerous.
