And just like that... avalanche danger is quite straight-forward-
In a sea of green, pockets of MODERATE avalanche danger exist on steep, leeward slopes in the wind zone at and above treeline. While not widespread, human triggered avalanches are POSSIBLE, especially in wind drifted terrain facing the north half of the compass, and particularly on slopes with an easterly component to its aspect.
If you're looking for LOW avalanche danger you came to the right place. Simply steer your snow riding vehicle toward mid and low elevation terrain, especially slopes facing the south half of the compass where human triggered avalanches are UNLIKELY.
