Avalanche Summary
A few more inches of snow and continued strong winds will keep upper elevations more dangerous on Wednesday. Identify and avoid wind-drifted snow on steep slopes, most likely on northeast, east, and southeast-facing slopes just below ridgelines. Safer travel options exist on wind-sheltered terrain at lower elevations where the snow is softer.
