Avalanche Summary

You can trigger a small avalanche in wind-drifted snow on slopes steeper than about 35 degrees, especially on easterly and south-facing slopes above treeline. Wind-drifted snow can appear pillowy or lens-shaped and is often found below ridgelines and in cross-loaded terrain features, like gullies or couloirs. If you experience cracking or hollow-sounding firm snow, you should move to wind-sheltered terrain at lower elevations for safer travel.
