Highlights
The General Avalanche Hazard is LOW in the morning and will increase to MODERATE as temperatures rise and snow surfaces soften. Isolated pockets of soft surface slab up to a foot deep exist at the higher elevations and lie upon slick old snow surfaces. Humans who venture into steep, wind loaded avalanche starting zones could trigger these slabs. Sunshine and warm temperatures will weaken the snowpack as the day progresses. Humans who ride or ski upon steep slopes at any elevation could trigger dangerous full depth wet slides during the heat of the day.
