Avalanche Summary

An inch or two of new snow will not raise the danger. Expect generally safe avalanche conditions. Cloud cover and a brief period of gusty winds on Thursday will slow wet snow concerns. Steer around any fresh drifts more than a few inches deep on slopes steeper than 40 degrees, below ridgelines. Any new snow could shed off crusts easily once the sun pops out. Triggering a small slab or sluff in consequential terrain could be bad if it sweeps you down into cliffs or rocks below.
