Avalanche Advisory
Advisory: Skyline Area Mountains Issued by Brett Kobernik for Tuesday - January 26, 2016 - 6:56am
bottom line

Most of the terrain has a MODERATE avalanche danger. This means human triggered avalanches are possible. The upper elevation north through southeast facing terrain has a CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger especially in areas that received the most snow and wind. More dangerous human triggered avalanches are likely in that higher terrain. Watch the sunny slopes to produce some wet avalanche activity as the sun heats the new snow for the first time.

AIR BAGS!!! We've had a lot of questions recently so CLICK HERE FOR A BUNCH OF GREAT INFO!

current conditions

It appears that the wind during the storm didn't create much danger in the mid elevations. I was not able to get into the higher terrain on Monday but I was able to see enough evidence that suggested some wind transported snow did occur.
