Avalanche Summary

Watch for small areas of drifted snow sitting right below ridgetop. You are most likely to find recent drifts on northeast and east-facing slopes. Any avalanche that you trigger in drifted snow will be small, but you could get knocked off your feet and into rocks. Besides these isolated, drifted pockets, avalanche conditions are generally safe.

Look for the danger to increase on Friday in areas that get more than about 6 inches of snow.
