Forecast for the Abajos Area Mountains

Eric Trenbeath
Issued by Eric Trenbeath on
Wednesday morning, February 19, 2020
Most terrain has generally LOW danger and mostly stable snow conditions exist. Low danger doesn't mean no danger and it may still be possible to trigger an avalanche in areas of extreme terrain. Carry appropriate rescue gear and continue to practice safe travel techniques.
