Avalanche Summary

An Avalanche Watch is in effect for the Summit County mountains and the Front Range. Very dangerous avalanche conditions develop overnight on Sunday, lasting through Monday. Strong winds and heavy snow will result in long-running natural avalanches and easy-to-trigger, large, dangerous avalanches. Travel in avalanche terrain is not recommended on Monday.

On Sunday, backcountry travelers can easily trigger avalanches where the winds have drifted snow into thick slabs. Avalanches can also be triggered from the flats below steep slopes or adjacent low-angle slopes. Give wind-loaded slopes a wide berth. Slopes with recently wind-drifted snow are the most dangerous. Shooting cracks and audible collapses are obvious indications to avoid steep slopes.
