You could trigger an avalanche on slopes steeper than around 35 degrees, where you find 8 inches or more of new or drifted snow. Cracking in the snow surface or easily triggered loose avalanches are signs of instability and an indication to retreat to low-angled slopes protected from the wind. Give suspect slopes a wide margin as there is a chance avalanches could be triggered for a distance or from below.
