Avalanche Summary

Wet avalanche concerns will rise throughout the day. You may be able to trigger small wet avalanches on steep slopes with more than about 8 inches of warming snow. Protected near treeline slopes could be the most problematic. Avalanches will grow in size as they move downhill. Gloppy, wet snow and rollerballs are signs of increasing avalanche hazard and indicate moving to shadier slopes or calling it a day.
