Avalanche Summary

The most dangerous slopes face northwest through north to east near and above treeline. Here, you can trigger an avalanche that breaks on deeply buried weak layers, growing large enough to bury you. You can easily trigger smaller avalanches on recently wind-drifted slopes, but the greater danger is a small avalanche stepping down to a deeper weak layer growing much larger and more destructive on aspects of concern. Seek out wind-sheltered terrain at lower elevations for safer travel options.
