Avalanche Summary

Generally safe avalanche conditions exist on most slopes. The few places you might be able to trigger an avalanche are where you find thick drifts of wind-blown snow at high elevations. If you see cracks shooting in the snow as you travel across you could be on one of these more dangerous wind drifts and you should stick to slopes less than about 35 degrees or head to more wind-sheltered terrain.
