Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Warning ends at 5 AM Thursday. Dangerous avalanche conditions continue, just with a lesser chance that avalanches will run spontaneously. You can easily trigger a large avalanche on many steep slopes, including deeply snow-covered low-elevation areas where snow cover typically remains thin. Most avalanches will break within the new snow, but some may break unpredictably much deeper. Travel on slopes less than 30 degrees in steepness, and avoid travel below large avalanche paths.
