Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is LOW in the morning and will increase to MODERATE as temperatures warm and the snowpack softens. Isolated pockets of dense shallow surface slab have formed in upper elevation starting zones and cliff areas and could be human triggered. Once significant warming occurs wet slides and deeper slabs are possible on steep sunlit aspects at all elevations. These wet slides could release to the ground especially on steep sunlit rocky slopes with a shallow snowpack.
