Avalanche Summary

The most dangerous areas are steep, wind-drifted slopes facing north through east to southeast at upper elevations. If you notice cracking and collapsing in the snow as you travel you should avoid slopes steeper than about 35 degrees or move to a different aspect or a more wind-sheltered slope.
