You can trigger a large, deadly avalanche that breaks deeply into the snowpack. You might see shooting cracks and small avalanches near the surface in storm snow on steep, drifted slopes. But beware of the thinner portions of the slope, closer to rocks and trees. These are the most likely places you’ll trigger a deadly avalanche. Reduce your chances of triggering a deadly avalanche by sticking to slopes less than about 30 degrees without steep slopes above you.
