Togwotee Pass

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE today. DANGEROUS surface slabs one to three in depth lie upon a very weak, unstable layer of faceted snow. User triggered avalanches are likely in steep wind loaded avalanche prone terrain. Beware that recent warming has hardened the snow surface which may allow users to venture further into the avalanche path before triggering the slide or the second or later person may become the trigger. Saturday a slide was skier released on an East facing slope on Two Ocean Peak.
