Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is MODERATE. At the higher elevations west-southwest winds have further loaded unstable, dense slabs that persist on steep, leeward aspects. These slabs could be triggered by the weight of a person and are expected to be up to two feet deep. Very steep terrain that is ideal for high-marking, like large open slopes and the steep walls of cirques may be dangerous.
