Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning is in effect for the Park Range and Flat Tops. Expect very dangerous avalanche conditions to develop by Friday morning and continue through Saturday as a potent storm impacts the mountains. You can very easily trigger avalanches large enough to bury you and many will release spontaneously.  Travel in backcountry avalanche terrain is not recommended.
