Avalanche Summary

Wind-drifted features at higher elevations are the most problematic and likely places to trigger an avalanche. You can find these more dangerous areas on steep slopes just below ridgelines, around rock outcrops, or in gullies or couloirs. Safer travel options exist in wind-sheltered terrain at lower elevations.
