Avalanche Summary

Most slopes are generally safe. Use extra caution on slopes steeper than 35 degrees facing north, east, and southeast if you find more than eight inches of drifted snow. You could trigger a small avalanche on these slopes, taking you for a dangerous ride. To help stay safe, avoid traveling on wind-loaded slopes above terrain traps that could amplify the consequences of being caught in an otherwise small and harmless avalanche.
