Avalanche Summary

Avalanche conditions are dangerous. Don't mistake a lack of obvious signs of instability for safe conditions. Strong westerly winds are further loading the most worrisome slopes. These most dangerous slopes face northwest through east. Another large, deadly avalanche was reported on Wednesday from the west side of the Tenmile Range near Crystal Peak. This avalanche likely released naturally as the winds picked up. These aren't survivable avalanches.

Assume that if you are traveling on northwest through east-facing slopes, there is a dangerous weak layer below you, and avoid being on or connected to slopes steeper than 30 degrees.
