Areas of MODERATE danger exist on mid and upper elevation aspects facing west to north and east where it is possible to trigger a large and dangerous avalanche that may break down 3-10' deep and up to hundreds of feet wide.
The danger for wet avalanches may also rise to MODERATE with direct sun and the excessive heat. Watch for small wet-loose avalanches in steep southerly-facing terrain and have an exit plan that allows you to quickly respond to wet snow activity.
