Avalanche Summary

A Special Avalanche Advisory is in effect from  4:30 PM Wednesday until 4:30 PM Sunday. Avalanche conditions are more dangerous than we’ve experienced this season. You can trigger dangerous avalanches large enough to injure or kill you. Avoid traveling on and under slopes with a slope angle steeper than about 30 degrees. You can trigger avalanches from a distance or from below.

The current avalanche situation is difficult to manage and requires conservative decisions and wide safety margins. Look around and you'll see lots of evidence of the avalanche potential. Friday afternoon's wind built fresh slabs on easterly and southerly-facing slopes at upper elevations. Southerly-facing lower-elevation slopes are the easiest place to find safer avalanche conditions.
