Avalanche Summary

Southwest winds are drifting snow into thick slabs on north through easterly-facing slopes. These newly drifted slabs are sitting on weaker, collapsible layers of snow. You can trigger an avalanche that breaks 1 to 3 feet and potentially gouges into deeper weak layers as it runs.

You may not see any warning signs before you trigger an avalanche. Reduce your chances of triggering one of these deeper slides by avoiding steep slopes with variable snow depths or thinner-than-average snowpack and/or newly drifted snow.
