Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is MODERATE in the morning and will increase to CONSIDERABLE in the afternoon. Sunshine and warm temperatures will combine to increase the hazard as the day progresses. Wet slides are possible on very steep slopes at all elevations. Dense surface slabs up to two feet in depth could be human triggered or may release naturally in very steep upper elevation avalanche starting zones.
