Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE today. Unstable soft surface slabs up to two feet in depth exist. These slabs could be triggered today on steep wind loaded aspects and have the potential to pull out deeper layers of faceted snow. These slabs will become more sensitive to triggers today as temperatures rise and new snow and rain add additional weight to the snowpack.
