Avalanche Summary

The most dangerous slopes face north through northeast to east near and above treeline. Here, you can easily trigger an avalanche. On slopes where you find stiff, wind-drifted snow some avalanches can grow large enough to bury you. Avoid traveling on steep terrain on these aspects of concern to reduce your chances of triggering an avalanche.
