Avalanche Summary

A few inches of new snow will not increase the avalanche danger. Most slopes are generally safe from avalanches on Friday. The few places where you can trigger an avalanche are in steep gullies, couloirs, or just below ridgelines where you can encounter stiff, hollow, wind-drifted snow. Even a small avalanche can knock you over and take you for a ride so be aware of any terrain traps such as a cliff or rocks below you.

Expect the avalanche danger to increase over the weekend as more snow and strong winds develop cohesive slabs that rest on older, weak snow.
