Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning is in effect for the areas surrounding Wolf Creek, Cumbres, and La Manga Passes. Heavy snowfall and wind have created dangerous avalanche conditions. Some avalanches will release naturally and can be triggered from a distance or below. Avalanches will break larger and run further than you expect. Avoid travel in or under avalanche terrain.
