Togwotee Pass

The General Avalanche Hazard is CONSIDERABLE this morning and will INCREASE to HIGH in the afternoon. Soft slabs up to three feet in depth have formed on a variety of aspects. These slabs lie upon slick old snow surfaces and could release naturally or be human triggered today in steep wind loaded avalanche prone terrain. With new snow and increasing winds in the forecast the hazard will increase as the day progresses. TRAVEL IN AVALANCHE TERRAIN IS NOT RECOMMENDED THIS AFTERNOON OR EVENING.
