HEADS UP... with strong sunshine overhead, recent storm snow instantly takes on heat. If you're feeling like an ant under a magnifying glass... so is the snow.
Two different flavors of plant-based, organic avalanche dragon are on today's menu.
Cold snow-
At and above treeline, you'll find MODERATE avalanche danger, especially on steep slopes in the wind zone. Shallow, fresh drifts will react to our additional weight and human triggered avalanches are POSSIBLE on steep, wind drifted slopes, particularly those with an easterly component to their aspect.
Hot snow-
With strong sunshine overhead, nearly all aspects and elevations take on heat and the danger of damp slides and sluffs increases to MODERATE as the day wares on.
