Avalanche Summary

Recent snowfall has formed fresh slabs 1 to 2 feet thick that sit over a weaker snow layer. You can easily trigger avalanches on most steep slopes. Natural avalanches reported from near Marble broke widely across slopes, entraining enough snow to bury a person.

Although less likely, you can trigger avalanches that break deeply into the snowpack resulting in unsurvivable avalanches.

Also on Monday, avoid steep rocky southerly slopes as the snow heats up during the day.

Low-angle slopes less than about 30 degrees offer the safest riding options.
