The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE on upper-elevation slopes facing northwest through southeast where triggering a slab of wind-drifted snow is likely. Other slopes at the mid and upper elevations have a MODERATE danger where triggering avalanches involving sluffing or soft slabs of new snow is possible. Any avalanche may break down over 2' deep and over 150' wide. The avalanche danger is LOW at low elevations.
There have been nearly 40 human-triggered avalanches reported to the UAC since Sunday, with a few near-misses. Carefully evaluate the stability of a slope before stepping into avalanche terrain and make sure there are no parties below you.
