Avalanche Summary

Most slopes are generally safe from avalanches. The most likely place to trigger a small avalanche is in isolated pockets of wind-drifted snow above treeline. You will find these areas below ridgelines and near cross-loaded gullies or couloirs. Drifted snow that is more likely to avalanche will sound hollow or feel stiff and crack underneath you.
