Avalanche Summary

The most dangerous avalanche conditions are on steep north and easterly-facing slopes that were recently wind-loaded. Steer clear of hard drifts of snow on steep slopes. Avalanches that break in drifted snow can break deeply in the snowpack on weak, collapsible layers near the ground.
