Avalanche Summary

Avalanches will be hard to trigger on most slopes, and conditions are generally safe. Steep wind-loaded faces below ridges or along the sides of gullies are the few places to identify and possibly avoid. Look for stiff, hollow-feeling snow as an indication of this problem. The safest riding options are on lower-angle slopes in wind-sheltered areas.
