Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning is in effect for the Sawatch Range. Very dangerous avalanche conditions continue Tuesday after the storm and into the next storm Wednesday. You can easily trigger avalanches large enough to bury you. Where strong winds drift snow avalanches can release naturally. Travel in or below avalanche terrain is not recommended.
