Avalanche Summary

We are in a low-likelihood, high-consequence situation. It's hard to trigger avalanches, but if you find the wrong spot, the avalanche will be large, wide, and potentially deadly. Multiple people can ride a slope before it slides. You're unlikely to see warning signs like cracking or collapsing before you trigger an avalanche. If you venture into avalanche terrain, stack the odds in your favor, by choosing slopes that do not end in terrain traps such as gullies, cliffs, or trees.
