Avalanche Summary

The most likely place to trigger an avalanche is on an open, wind-drifted slope directly below ridgetop. Look for and avoid steep, leeward slopes where you find cohesive slabs of snow more than about 6 inches thick. Any avalanche has the potential to gouge down to deeper layers and grow larger. North, northeast, and east-facing slopes are the most dangerous. Avoid slopes where you observed obvious signs of instability, like shooting cracks and sounds of the snowpack collapsing.
