Avalanche Summary

You are most likely to trigger an avalanche below ridges and along gullies where winds have drifted snow into thicker slabs. Look for and avoid rounded pillows of firm snow in the alpine, and be attentive close to the treeline. If you get caught in a small slide in the early season it is likely to push you into exposed rocks and tree stumps. Head to lower-angled slopes or those without a firm slab if you experience cracking or collapsing.
