Avalanche Summary

You are most likely to trigger a Wet Slab avalanche in steep rocky terrain. Areas with a higher likelihood of triggering a slide are thin areas along the edges of a slope. Thursday night, the surface will freeze, but you can still trigger an avalanche on wet snow beneath the surface. Step off your floatation or dig to see if there is wet snow beneath a crust, and avoid steep slopes if you find this.
