Avalanche Summary

Most slopes are safe from avalanches. If you were to trigger an avalanche, it would be on isolated steep slopes at upper elevations where a stiff slab of snow sits over weaker snow below. To avoid any avalanche hazard, avoid slopes that sound hollow or drumby and stick to slopes less than 35 degrees in steepness.
