Avalanche Summary

Strong winds have drifted snow and created dangerous avalanche conditions. You can trigger large avalanches on north through east to southeast-facing slopes where strong winds drifted thick, dense slabs. Avoid traveling on or under slopes steeper than about 30 degrees at upper elevations. If you trigger an avalanche in the new snow, it can step down to deeper weak layers, resulting in a large dangerous avalanche. This is particularly true on northeast, east, southeast, and south-facing slopes where there are older weak layers in the upper snowpack.

With clear skies and warming temperatures, expect to see loose wet avalanches running on steep, sun-cooked slopes. Avoid traveling underneath these slopes, especially later in the day.
