Strong winds and now warm weather have made it challenging to trigger avalanches. The remaining hazard spots are where you find a firm slab of wind-packed snow sitting over weaker snow. These areas are isolated on steep alpine slopes.
Warm temperatures are increasing the hazard of loose avalanches on sunny slopes later in the day. Start your adventure early and avoid being on or under sunny cliff bands later in the day. Take rollerballs as an early warning sign to move away from a sunny slope.
