Avalanche Summary
The avalanche danger will increase throughout the day. By the afternoon dangerous avalanche conditions will exist and you can easily trigger a dangerous avalanche on most steep slopes that face northwest through north to east. Most steep slopes that face south simply don't have enough snow to produce a dangerous avalanche. To reduce your chances of triggering an avalanche, start and end your day early and avoid traveling on steep slopes once your feet or machine start sinking deep into wet snow, or if you start to experience cracking or collapsing in wet snow.
