Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning is in effect through Thursday for the Ruby Range and Ragged Mountains. Heavy snowfall and strong winds will result in very dangerous avalanche conditions. Large avalanches will be easy to trigger and/or release naturally. This is an unprecedented early-season storm, and travel in or around avalanche terrain is not recommended during this period.
