The avalanche danger is MODERATE on all steep mid and upper-elevation slopes where it's possible to find old and new pockets of sensitive wind-drifted snow. As the winds increase throughout the day, be on the lookout and avoid any fresh drift of wind-blown snow. Here avalanches can be 1-2 feet deep and up to 50-100 feet wide.
Avoid traveling underneath or along the edge of corniced ridgelines, as large cornices may easily break off. Long-running dry loose avalanches (sluffs) are also possible in steep, sustained terrain.
