Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Watch is in effect for portions of the Southern Mountains including the La Plata Mountains east to Wolf Creek Pass and north to Lizard Head Pass, Silverton, and Telluride. Very dangerous avalanche conditions will develop Friday night. Travel in avalanche terrain is not recommended on Saturday.

On Friday, you can easily trigger avalanche where snow totals exceed around a eight inches of new snow. Avalanches triggered in the new storm snow can step down to buried weak layers triggering a larger and more dangerous slide. Be aware of changing conditions as the day progresses. Move to slopes less than about 30 degrees without steep slopes overhead if you see higher snow accumulation or active wind-loading forming smooth, rounded pillows of snow.
