Avalanche Summary

Wednesday's warm weather will allow snow surfaces to become wet, so in the afternoon you can trigger loose avalanches. Move off steep slopes once the snow surface becomes sticky before it becomes slushy. Avoid traveling above terrain traps where a small avalanche could magnify the consequences of getting caught.
