Current conditions

Avalanche danger: 1. Low

Most slopes are safe from avalanches. On isolated slopes at higher elevations, you might encounter stiffer slabs over weak layers 1 to 2 feet deep on the north side of the compass. Look for stiffer snow surfaces or rounded drifts below ridges or deeper gullies as features to avoid, especially in steep, consequential terrain.
