Avalanche Summary

Periods of moderate snowfall on Monday will increase avalanche danger. The most dangerous slopes will be those with wind-drifted snow from southerly winds. Avoid very steep slopes where you observe shooting cracks or where the snow feels harder and more cohesive than in sheltered areas.
