In sintesi

Avalanche danger throughout the terrain will be Low on Saturday morning, but will increase to Moderate on East slopes at and above treeline by the afternoon.  A few inches of new snow and Moderate winds from the West will build shallow Wind Slabs on East slopes by the end of Saturday.

    The forecast is for a few inches of new snow during the day on Saturday.  Above the forrest this snow will be blown around by Moderate winds and redistributed onto East slopes.  The winds will be shifting from Southwest in the morning to West and Northwest later in the day.  With only a few inches of new snow, Wind Slabs will be mostly shallow, but could be large enough to knock a rider off their feet.  I've always liked the rule of thumb that wind accumulated snow could be 3-5 times deeper than what you're finding in areas not effected by wind.
