Avalanche Summary

Gusty shifting winds have and will continue to drift the new snow in some places above treeline. You might trigger a small slab avalanche below ridgelines or anywhere you find more than around a foot of freshly deposited snow. Choose wind-sheltered terrain with softer snow textures.
