Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is LOW in the early morning hours and will rapidly increase to CONSIDERABLE as the day warms. Wet slides are possible on a variety of steep slopes at all elevations after surface melt-freeze crusts soften and loose thier strenght. These wet slides could release to the ground in areas where surface crusts are underlain by weak faceted snow.
