Avalanche Summary

The avalanche danger has dropped to MODERATE (Level 2 of 5), but the consequences of triggering an avalanche have not. Any avalanche you trigger can be large, wide, and deadly. Multiple people can ride a slope before it slides. You're unlikely to see warning signs like cracking or collapsing before you trigger an avalanche. If you venture into avalanche terrain, stack the odds in your favor, by choosing slopes that do not end in terrain traps such as gullies, cliffs, or trees.

There is a chance of wet avalanches in very steep and rocky terrain. Avoid steep, sunbaked slopes if the snow becomes unsupportable or if you observe rollerballs in the surface snow.
