The avalanche danger is MODERATE above 5000 feet. Recent snowfall and winds continue to form wind slabs making it possible to trigger an avalanche on wind loaded slopes. Be cautious of all wind-loaded terrain today. Carefully evaluate the conditions before committing to a slope. Below 5000 feet the danger is LOW. Safe backcountry travel techniques should be practiced.

The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 6000 feet. Recent snowfall and winds have created dangerous avalanche conditions. You are likely to trigger an avalanche on wind loaded terrain and conservative decision making is essential. Evaluate all terrain that has received wind loading or substantial new snow before committing to a slope. Below 6000 feet the danger is MODERATE and below 5000 feet the danger is LOW. Safe backcountry travel techniques should be practiced.

New snow overnight and continued windy conditions have kept the avalanche danger elevated. Natural and human triggered avalanches have been observed for each of the past 3 days. Above 5000 feet the avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE and human triggered avalanches are likely. Dangerous avalanche conditions exist with cautious route-finding and conservative decision making essential. Below 5000 feet the hazard is MODERATE due to the wet loose problem.

The avalanche danger remains elevated due to warming temperatures and continued windy conditions. Natural and human triggered avalanches have been observed over the past 2 days. The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE and human triggered avalanches are likely. Dangerous avalanche conditions exist and careful snow pack evaluation, cautious route-finding, and conservative decision making are essential.

The avalanche danger remains elevated due to warming temperatures and continued windy conditions. Natural and human triggered avalanches have been observed over the past 2 days. The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE and human triggered avalanches are likely. Dangerous avalanche conditions exist and careful snow pack evaluation, cautious route-finding, and conservative decision making are essential.

Dangerous conditions exist due to warming temperatures, recent strong winds, and additional wet, heavy snow. The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE, and human triggered avalanches are likely. Pay attention to changing weather conditions today. Careful snow pack evaluation, cautious route-finding, and conservative decision making are essential.

Warming temperatures, strong winds, and relatively heavy snow created dangerous conditions. The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 5000 feet, and human triggered avalanches are likely.  Continued warming and additional snowfall today will cause sensitive storm slabs to become more widespread as the day progresses. Below 5000 feet where human triggered avalanches remain possible the danger is MODERATE.

The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 5000 feet, and human triggered avalanches are likely.  Continued warming and additional snowfall today will cause sensitive storm slabs to become more widespread as the day progresses. Below 5000 feet where human triggered avalanches remain possible the danger is MODERATE.

The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 5000 feet. Recent snowfall and winds have created dangerous avalanche conditions. Expect more snow today with strong to extreme winds. You are likely to trigger an avalanche on wind-loaded terrain and conservative decision-making is essential. In terrain sheltered from the wind, loose snow avalanches are possible due to deep unconsolidated snow. Below 5000 feet the avalanche danger is MODERATE. 

The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 6000 feet. Recent snowfall and winds have created dangerous avalanche conditions. Today expect more snow with increasing winds. You are likely to trigger an avalanche on wind-loaded terrain and conservative decision-making is essential. In terrain sheltered from the wind, loose snow avalanches are possible due to deep unconsolidated snow. Below 6000 feet the avalanche danger is MODERATE and below 5000 feet the danger is LOW.

Winds from varying directions has drifted the recent substantial snowfall and has elevated the avalanche hazard.  The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 6000 feet where fresh wind slabs should be expected on all aspects. Below 6000 feet the avalanche danger is MODERATE. Evaluate all terrain that has received wind loading or substantial new snow before committing to a slope. Dangerous avalanche conditions exist and conservative decision-making is essential today.

Fresh snowfall overnight, combined with wind and forecasted snow totals for today, has increased the avalanche hazard. The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE above 6000 feet where fresh storm and wind slabs should be expected. Below 6000 feet the avalanche danger is MODERATE but may rise depending on snowfall. Evaluate all terrain that has received wind loading or substantial new snow before committing to a slope. Dangerous avalanche conditions exist and conservative decision-making is essential today.
