Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is MODERATE today. Recent dense snow lies on slippery light density snow over sun, rain and other crusts. Sunlit slopes will become unstable as the day warms and slides could be easily triggered. At low elevations with warm temperatures wet slides occurred yesterday and more are likely today, possibly running on the ground surface. Avoid steep ravines and rodcuts.
