Avalanche Summary

Avalanche conditions are generally safe, but there are still a few areas where you could trigger one. These are spots where recent winds built stiff slabs of wind-drifted snow on steep slopes above treeline. Avoid traveling on steep, wind-loaded slopes above dangerous features like creeks or cliffs, where even a small avalanche could have serious consequences.
