If you were to trigger an avalanche, it would be on a steep alpine slope where a drifted slab of cohesive snow sits above older, weaker snow. You will find the deepest and stiffest snow drifts just below ridgelines, cross-loaded terrain, or couloirs on slopes facing northwest to north through east.
For safer riding options, stick to slopes less than 35 degrees in steepness.
