Avalanche Summary

Avalanche conditions are dangerous. Four to eight inches of snow are possible overnight, which means you can trigger small slides in recently drifted snow on Wednesday. The bigger problem, however, is that strong westerly winds over the weekend built thick slabs of snow on leeward slopes. On north to east through southeast-facing slopes, these drifted slabs are resting on collapsible weak layers near the ground.

Each of the past four days, observers reported remotely-triggered avalanches, shooting cracks, and rumbling collapses. Avoid traveling on or under drifted snow on steep slopes. Choose your safe spots carefully. This is a good time to consider adding extra margins for error in your trip planning process.
