Primary Problem: Wind Slab
Bottom Line: The southern portions of the advisory area received 2-4” of snow over the past three days. With less wind and less snow, human-triggered avalanches are unlikely. Today's primary concern is thin wind slab avalanches breaking up to 6” deep. These are limited to terrain subject to more wind, generally upper elevations. Recognize the consequences of a small avalanche in the presence of terrain traps and adjust your route if you notice shooting cracks or signs of instability.
