Avalanche Advisory Block

Sensitive to stubborn wind slabs will be the primary avalanche concern for today due to fresh light snowfall over the weekend and varying levels of SW winds. MODERATE avalanche danger exists above treeline. While isolated pockets of wind slab may exist near treeline, overall avalanche danger is LOW near treeline and below where the greatest hazards continue to be the shallow snowpack and abundant obstacles.  Avalanche danger will rise dramatically overnight with major snowfall expected.
