Curiously straight-forward these days and the song remains the same-
MODERATE avalanche danger is found on upper elevation shady slopes, especially in the wind zone at and above treeline. The danger is most pronounced in steep, rocky terrain facing the north half of the compass.. Human triggered wind drifts, along with more dangerous slides breaking to weak layers now buried deep in our snowpack are POSSIBLE.
Generally LOW avalanche danger is found on most south facing terrain along with mid and lower elevation shady slopes.
