Avalanche Summary

Most slopes are safe from avalanches, mainly due to thin or non-existent snow cover. Some new and drifting snow means you might find isolated slopes with wind-stiffened snow on high-elevation northerly-facing slopes where you could trigger a small avalanche. Use caution traveling in steep gullies and areas close to ridgelines where going for a ride in a small slide with such shallow snow cover can be dangerous.
