Avalanche Summary

Avalanche conditions are generally safe. If you were to trigger an avalanche, it would be on a steep cross-loaded slopes that face northerly or east. Wind-drifted snow will feel stiff and can sound hollow. Cracking in the new snow is a sign of instability. Slopes protected from the wind offer safer and more enjoyable backcountry travel.
