Avalanche Summary

You can easily trigger avalanches on steep northerly and easterly-facing slopes. These will be larger where southwest winds drift the snow. With fresh slabs on buried weak snow, you can trigger avalanches from a distance. Seek out southerly-facing slopes that held well-developed, supportive crusts prior to the storm to enjoy the new snow.
