The snowpack in this area is shallow. You can trigger an avalanche that will break on weak layers in the top meter of the snowpack if you find a shallow spot on a slope. Steep northerly and easterly slopes have produced the largest avalanche. Assess the slopes you plan to travel and identify and avoid shallow trigger points.
Loose avalanches are not out of the question in the afternoon. Avoid traveling on or under slopes where you observe rollerballs, pinwheels, or fan-like point releases.
