Avalanche Summary

Denser slabs on easterly-facing slopes have gone dormant, and most slopes are safe. As winds ramp up, look for small pockets of wind-drifted snow below ridges or in convex features. With low snow totals from recent storms, these should be harmless unless you are traveling in consequential terrain.
