Avalanche Summary

The most dangerous slopes sit directly below ridgetop and face a north or easterly direction. These slopes have a weak layer buried several feet deep with a cohesive slab on top. Small slides in drifted snow can break into deeper layers once they start moving. Avoid steep slopes with signs of previous drifting.

South and southwest-facing slopes, and slopes less than about 30 degrees in steepness without steeper slopes overhead offer the safest riding options.
