Avalanche Summary
Dangerous avalanche conditions exist on most slopes. Northerly and easterly-facing slopes are the most dangerous, as avalanches will be larger here because these slopes hold more early-season snow. You could also trigger one of these avalanches from a distance. Be cautious if you see shooting cracks, feel collapsing, or see tiny avalanches on cut banks. Practice good group management and terrain selection by sticking to slopes less than about 30 degrees not connected to steeper slopes above you.
