Avalanche Summary
A Special Avalanche Advisory is in effect. New snow and winds through the holiday weekend have created dangerous avalanche conditions. Adjust your plans accordingly, and check the forecast frequently.
Recent snow and wind continue to keep danger elevated at all elevations. Avalanches will be largest where winds have drifted new snow into thick, stiff slabs on the eastern half of the compass. Obvious signs of unstable snow include fresh avalanches, shooting cracks, or collapses. Avoid triggering an avalanche by traveling on slopes less than 30 degrees without steep slopes overhead.
