Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is CONSIDERABLE. Unstable soft and hard slabs up to four feet deep exist on a variety of aspects and are sensitive to human triggers. As the day progresses the hazard will increase on sunlit aspects. Rising temperatures and sunshine will increase the sensitivity of these dangerous slabs to human triggers and increase the potential for natural releases.
