Area closures for avalanche control are in effect periodically from November to May. Click here for more information and maps.
After a week full of avalanche activity: Factor in the effects of rising freezing levels and solar inputs as you select your objectives this weekend.
The avalanche problems described will become more sensitive to human triggering as the snowpack warms up and the potential will increase for snow to move as cornice failures or small solar triggered events which could initiate these slabs as well.

Travel and Terrain Advice
- Uncertainty is best managed through conservative terrain choices at this time.
- Avoid thin areas like rock outcroppings where you're most likely to trigger avalanches failing on deep weak layers.
