The new snow has slightly elevated the avalanche danger. A "pockety" MODERATE avalanche danger exists on steep slopes in the upper elevations where wind drifted snow is present. Small human triggered avalanches are possible. The avalanche danger will start to decrease as the new snow settles and bonds during the day.
