Avalanche conditions are generally safe. Remember, low danger doesn’t mean no danger, and there is a small chance you could trigger an avalanche on a steep, wind-drifted, above-treeline slope that faces north to east. If the snow surface feels hard and sounds hollow as you travel over it, consider moving to slopes without these surfaces.
