Avalanche Summary

You will most likely trigger an avalanche on high-elevation slopes, below ridgelines, and along gully walls where you find snow drifts. These drifts may be firm and rounded and can crack when you travel on them. Head to lower-angled slopes or those holding soft none wind affected snow for safer riding.
