Southern San Juan

Avalanche conditions are generally safe. While unlikely, you could trigger an avalanche above treeline where you find pockets of wind-stiffened snow over weak snow, and below treeline where you find very weak surface snow on steep shady slopes. You could trigger a small loose avalanche in steep north-facing terrain near and below treeline, especially where the snowpack is shallow and cohesionless. While these avalanches will be small, getting caught in one above a terrain trap, like a cliff, could be dangerous.
