Avalanche Forecast By Zone
The Bottom Line
Over 2 feet of new snow and rising temps have likely created dry loose and storm slab avalanche danger. Loose snow on steep slopes may move with you and knock you over and into bad places.
Use caution on slopes steeper than 35 degrees. Keep eyes on your partners from a safe spot out of avalanche terrain. If you are seeing cracking or other red flags, choose another lower angle slope to travel.
The next Avalanche Forecast will be issued Saturday, February 22nd.
