Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is HIGH today. Southwest and west winds have formed new soft slabs up to three feet in depth. These slabs lie upon an unstable snowpack and have potential to step down to weak layers of faceted snow formed in early November. Slab avalanches up to five feet in depth could release naturally or be human triggered. TRAVEL IN AVALANCHE TERRAIN IS NOT RECOMMENDED TODAY.
