Today the avalanche danger is MODERATE. Human triggered avalanches are POSSIBLE in areas of wind drifted snow that exist near and above treeline on slopes that face NW-N-NE-E-SE. The greatest danger is predominantly found above treeline where drifts can be up to 2 feet deep.
A layer of weak faceted snow exists on some slopes near treeline and above that face NW-N-NE-E. It is still POSSIBLE to trigger an avalanche breaking down to this weak layer, but the likelihood is decreasing.
