Avalanche Summary

A few inches of new snow will fall short of raising the danger. With shifting winds associated with the incoming storm, be on the lookout for small drifts to accumulate around ridgelines on the eastern half of the compass. These should be easy to manage, but should be avoided if they grow to over a foot, or if you are traveling in consequential terrain.
