Front Range

You can expect generally safe avalanche conditions. The few places where you might be able to trigger a small avalanche are on wind-loaded slopes at the highest elevations where the snow surface has a smooth, wave-like appearance and a hard, hollow feel when traveling across it. If you find yourself traveling on one of these wind-loaded slopes, most often found on the lee-side of a ridgeline or along the sides of a gully, consider moving to a different slope or sticking to slopes less than about 30 degrees steep.
