1 part snow + 1 part wind makes for a CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger due to wind slabs on slopes that face NW, N, NE & E at both mid and upper elevations. Wind slabs will range in depth from 16" - 30". Follow safe riding protocol: wear your avalanche rescue equipment and only put one person on a slope at a time.
There is a MODERATE danger of triggering a deep slab avalanche failing at the ground on mid & upper elevation slopes that face NW, N, NE, E & SE. |
