Avalanche Summary
Travel in avalanche terrain in upper elevations is not recommended in areas around The Ruby and Ragged Ranges that saw over 20 inches of new snow. Recent snowfall has created fresh slabs that you can easily trigger on most steep slopes. Avalanches will grow large enough to bury or kill you in higher elevations in the alpine that got the most snow. The threat of triggering a larger avalanche that steps deeper into the snowpack remains.
Reduce the threat of avalanches by steering clear of continuously steep, open slopes with lots of vertical relief and terrain traps such as gullies and ravines. Low-angle slopes less than about 30 degrees without steep slopes above offer the safest riding options..
