Your biggest concern remains triggering an avalanche that breaks into weak sugary facets that formed in January. The weak layer is about 1 1/2 feet below the snow surface. You won't see any signs of avalanche danger today. But, if you dig down, you will, no doubt, find the loose sugary snow. You may notice it when you step off your skis or machine and punch through into it.

Today's snowfall won't affect the old weak layer all that much. However, there is no doubt in my mind that a person could trigger something today. The most likely spots to find trouble are above 9500 feet in elevation on steep slopes that face northwest, north, northeast and east.
