Highlights

The General Avalanche Hazard is MODERATE. Snow and winds over the past week have deposited soft surface slabs six to twelve inches in depth in the mountains. These slabs could be triggered by riders or skiers today in steep, high, avalanche starting zones where the newer snow sits on a hard, slick crust that formed in early November.

Avalanche Discussion

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )Increasing cloudy skies are forecasted for Sunday night along with rising wind speeds out of the Southwest reaching 30 mph by morning. Mountain and valley lows are expected to be near 20 before rising into the mid 30s up high and near 40 down low.The General Avalanche Hazard at the High elevation is expected to remain MODERATE on Monday. Isolated pockets of slab to six to eighteen inches in depth could be triggered in steep terrain underlain by the early November crust. In areas without this crust, avalanches are unlikely as the newer snow lies directly on the ground.
