Avalanche Summary

You can trigger small avalanches near and above treeline. Look for and avoid steep slopes if you find more than about 10 inches of new or wind-drifted snow. You can find safer riding in wind-sheltered, and lower-elevation spots. Sunday will be a windy day; expect new drifts to form throughout the day.

Weather Summary

These wind slabs may not be that bad. We've been holding them for a while now; at some point we are going to need to drop them.
