Comments
Mostly LOW danger. New snow was sensitive, and it was easy to trigger sluffs on steep slopes at the higher elevations, that ran full track for the terrain, with shallow debris piles. But just not enough snow where I was for these to be much of a concern for a person, unless you were pushed off balance and off a cliff. Any danger increased with new snow depth - some slopes that received 4" of new snow (upper Cottonwoods) actually had a shallow natural cycle in a few places.
Clouds and slightly cooler temperatures kept wet snow issues from being a problem today.
