Avalanche Summary
Avalanche conditions are generally safe. In very steep or extreme terrain, use caution around newly drifted snow and watch for small sluffs. Even a small amount of moving snow can knock you off your feet and carry you into hazardous terrain further down the mountain.
Researchers Ian McCammon and Sara Boilen are developing new tools for managing human factors for backcountry skiers and boarders. This survey asks about personal experiences with human factors and will take 7 - 8 minutes to fill out. Link is HERE. Thank you for your help!
