I think a lot of our wind drift issues are starting to relax and the snowpack is feeling comfortable in its own skin. While today's slabs might be a little stubborn, if triggered they'll have some mass behind them and they'll be packing a punch. If your travels take you into big, upper elevation terrain today.... Ride defensively and have an escape plan. Your best plan of attack is avoiding any fat, rounded piece of snow, especially if it sounds or feels hollow like a drum.
The most obvious avalanche problem today will be the wind slabs at upper elevations. However, don't forget that shallow snowpack areas still exist and there is still a chance for triggering an avalanche that breaks to old snow. Steep, upper elevation, north facing slopes, especially those with a thin, weak snowpack need to be carefully evaluated or better yet, simply avoid terrain with these characteristics.
Cornices have grown quite large the past few days and may break back further than you might expect. Best to avoid being on or underneath these boxcar sized pieces of snow. (Photo: Ted Scroggin)
