Avalanche Summary

You can trigger a deadly avalanche that breaks widely and deeply. The most problematic areas are around the thinner portions of the slab around the edges of the slope, near exposed rocks and vegetation. Several people could ride a slope before you trigger a slide. Seek slopes less than about 30 degrees without steep slopes above you for safer riding options.
