Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning is in effect for the Gore Range. Expect very dangerous avalanche conditions throughout the day Saturday through midnight Sunday. You can very easily trigger avalanches large enough to bury you and some will release spontaneously. Avoid travel in avalanche terrain during this period.
