In sintesi

The avalanche danger is MODERATE on steep slopes with saturated snow due to poor overnight refreeze and warm daytime temperatures. Wet snow avalanches, both natural and human-triggered, are possible. If you're sinking into saturated snow above your ankles, move to a cooler aspect, higher elevation, or lower-angle terrain. Stay clear of overhanging cornices as they may break back further than expected. The danger is LOW on northwest to northeast-facing slopes at mid and upper elevations.

As always, practice safe travel protocols by exposing only one person at a time in avalanche terrain.

With a poor overnight refreeze and warm temperatures today, wet avalanches remain possible on east, south, and west-facing slopes. If you start sinking into saturated snow above your ankles, it is time to move to a cooler aspect, higher elevation, or lower-angle terrain. Rollerballs and pinwheels are sure signs the snow is losing stability. *Cornices are starting to calve off with the warm temperatures - stay off of and well away from overhanging cornices as they may break back further than expected.
