Avalanche Summary

Thin snow coverage and generally safe avalanche conditions exist. Terrain in the alpine, facing north and east, which have continuous snow, are the areas where you could trigger a small slide. Look for smooth pillows of firm, drifted snow capping old snow. Areas close to Berthoud Pass and in the northern 10-Mile range have the highest chance of this hazardous setup. Even a small slide in the early season can be dangerous, with many shallowly buried objects to hit.
