Avalanche Summary

You are most likely to trigger an avalanche on a near treeline slope that was recently wind drifted. Slabs of drifted snow are on north through easterly slopes. Some of these slabs of snow sit on weaker, collapsible layers. Avoid hard drifts of snow and be especially careful in the near treeline elevation band.
