Highlights
The snowpack is slowly adjusting to last week's snow and wind which drifted LOTS of snow. It's becoming less probable for a person to trigger an avalanche in the majority of the terrain but it's still likely on the higher elevation more east facing slopes that have been wind loaded with snow. A CONSIDERABLE danger still exists in those locations. Buried persistent weak layers of sugar snow are inherently deceiving and often cause avalanches long after we think things are safe.
