Highlights

The general avalanche hazard is LOW today. Recent wind, snow, and warming temperatures have resulted in isolated pockets of soft slab to one foot in depth on a variety of aspects. These slabs lie on sun crusts and weak faceted snow crystals and could be triggered today on steep slopes, around cliff areas and in steep gullies. LOW hazard does not mean NO hazard exists.
