Avalanche Summary

Easterly-facing slopes where strong winds drift thick slabs of snow will be the most dangerous. Look for and avoid rounded pillows of snow that crack under your weight. Have extra caution anywhere you find more than eight inches of new snow forming a cohesive slab. If you trigger an avalanche in the surface snow, there is still a chance it could step down to deeper weak layers. This is most likely on slopes with shallow coverage and many trigger points. If you find a cohesive slab that cracks, stick to slopes under 30 degrees. You can reduce your chances of triggering a deeper avalanche by riding smooth planar slopes with a deep snowpack.
