Points saillants

Avalanche danger on Tuesday will be unchanged from Monday.  Avalanches large enough to bury or injure a rider are unlikely.  It is always worth carrying avalanche rescue equipment and employing good travel techniques like riding one at a time on steep slopes.  Very small Wet Loose instabilities are possible on steep South slopes and could be large enough to knock a rider off their feet.

    Cooler temperatures on Monday kept Wet Loose instabilities to a minimum.  The daytime high temperature is forecast to be a few degrees warmer on Tuesday, but I don't expect a marked difference in the likelihood of Wet Loose avalanches.  Very small Wet Loose avalanches will be possible on steep South slopes during the warmest part of the day.  If you are riding on very steep slopes, or terrain traps are present, watch that first turn to see how much snow you are pushing around; even small Wet Loose avalanches can be powerful enough to knock a rider off their feet.
