Avalanche Summary

You could trigger an avalanche where recent winds drifted new snow on top of a weak layer. Look for and avoid slopes with textured pillows of snow directly below ridgelines or in gullies. Do not let tracks on a slope indicate that the slope is safe; multiple people could ride the slope before triggering a large avalanche. Stick to slopes less than about 30 degrees without steep slopes above you for safer riding options.
