A MODERATE avalanche danger exists on steep upper elevation northerly facing slopes where the snowpack is more than a foot deep. Old weak faceted snow from November may collapse under the new snow and cause avalanches. If you hear a significant "WHOOMPING" noise while traveling, this is the old faceted snow collapsing under the weight of the new snow. This is an obvious sign of unstable snow.
