Avalanche Summary

Winds increase on Wednesday. These winds will drift snow into thick slabs on north through easterly slopes. Avalanches can run naturally during times of intense wind loading. Avalanches will be easy to trigger in drifted snow and some avalanches could step down to more deeply buried weak layers. Avoid steep slopes where you observe fresh drifting.

The most dangerous slopes are at higher elevations where slabs are thicker. You can identify wind-drifted features by their smooth rounded appearance and hollow feel.
