Avalanche Summary

Dangerous avalanche conditions exist on northwest through north to southeast-facing slopes. Most avalanches will be small, but some can grow large enough to bury you, and you can trigger them from below a slope, so be aware of steep slopes above you. Avoid traveling on steep slopes, generally steeper than 30 degrees, facing these directions if you want to reduce your chances of being injured or possibly worse in an avalanche on Monday.
