Avalanche Summary

The most dangerous places are steep wind-loaded slopes above treeline. Hard slabs of snow rest on top of very soft, collapsible weak layers. It's difficult to know which slopes have this hard over soft setup until you are out on them. Your safest approach is to avoid steep north, northeast, and east-facing slopes in the alpine. Triggering a shallow avalanche could provoke a deeper failure in weak snow near the ground, and be more of a challenge to escape.
