Avalanche Summary

You might encounter small pillows of wind-drifted snow below ridges at higher elevations. These should be easy to manage or steer around, and would only be dangerous if you were knocked over in consequential terrain. Most slopes are too thin or lack a thicker slab needed for an avalanche, and are generally safe.
