Avalanche Summary

Most slopes are generally safe from avalanches. Isolated pockets of hazard may exist at upper elevations where drifted snow sits on a firm surface or at lower elevations where the snowpack is wet, hollow, and has a trapdoor feeling. Adjust your travel plans if you see cracking in the drifted snow or if you start sinking in wet snow past your ankles. A small avalanche can have significant consequences in the wrong terrain.
