Avalanche Summary

You can trigger an avalanche on weak snow buried 2 to 3 feet deep on the ground. You will likely trigger an avalanche from weaker slope areas along the edges and other shallow spots near trees and rocks. Multiple people could ride a slope before you trigger a slide. Wind-drifted slopes with firm, rounded pillows will be the most dangerous. You can find safer riding on slopes without a slab in sheltered areas and below the treeline.
