DANGEROUS AVALANCHE CONDITIONS WILL EXIST FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS! The avalanche danger is HIGH today as new snow and wind drifted are dangerously overloading a fragile snowpack. Natural and human triggered avalanches breaking 2'-4' deep are likely on steep slopes that face W-N-E. Avalanches within the most recent snow are possible on all aspects. Travel in avalanche terrain is not recommended. Backcountry travelers need to possess excellent route finding skills and know how to stay off of, and out from under, steep, avalanche prone terrain.
