Avalanche danger
Highlights
Mostly stable stable snow exists. Cold temperatures are expected to keep snow surfaces hard during the morning hours. The hazard will increase in the afternoon on very steep slopes where signigicant softening of the snow surfaces occur. Avalanches are unlikely except in isolated areas in extremely steep terrain and cliff areas where some potential to trigger wet slides may develop.
Avalanche Discussion
Skies will be clear overnight and into the morning on Tuesday. Clouds are expected to increase during the afternoon. Mountain snow showers are likely and valley rain showers are possible during the evening hours. Temperatures will drop into the teens and 20s overnight and rise into the 30s and 40s during the day. Winds will be southwesterly at 20 to 25 miles per hour with higher gusts.The general avalanche hazard will be LOW during the morning and could increase to MODERATE on very steep sunlit aspects after snow surfaces soften. Human triggered wet slides may be possible in very steep terrain during the heat of the day.
