Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning is in effect for the Park Range, Flat Tops, Gore Range, and Elkhead Mountains. Expect very dangerous avalanche conditions from Saturday morning through Sunday evening. You can very easily trigger avalanches large enough to bury you and many will release spontaneously. Some may break on deeply buried weak layers. Travel in backcountry avalanche terrain is not recommended.
