Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is LOW in the early morning hours and will likely increase to MODERATE well before noon and to CONSIDERABLE by the afternoon due to near freezing overnight temperatures. As temperatures rise and the snowpack warms the hazard will increase. Dangerous wet loose and wet slab avalanches could be human triggered or release naturally on steep snow covered slopes once significant warming has occurred. These events could step down to the ground. This is the last advisory of the season.
