Avalanche Summary

Most slopes are free of avalanche activity. You may encounter small loose avalanches on slopes heating beneath a strong springtime sun. To avoid these, stay off sloppy wet snow on steep slopes and limit your time beneath steep cliffy areas with warming snow overhead. In addition, if your plan is to ride steep, exposed terrain, watch for small pockets of older wind-drifted snow. Even a small avalanche can knock you off your feet and take you for a dangerous ride.
