Tetons

At the mid and upper elevations soft surface slabs up to 18 inches in depth lie upon slick sliding surfaces and continue to be triggered by skiers on a variety of aspects. Deep slab instabilities also persist. Skiers have recently triggered hard slabs 2 to 4 feet in depth which have run on early season layers of faceted snow and buried crusts. Expect loose snow to sluff on steeper slopes which have not been affected by the wind. Be aware of terrain traps and steep wind loaded terrain.
