We encourage everyone to check avalanche.org and their local forecast centers before heading out into the mountains.

GENERAL AVALANCHE ADVISORY:
An avalanche warning remains in effect. Conditions are still very dangerous. Up to 50 inches of snow with 4 inches of moisture has fallen in favored areas since Saturday. Temperatures will be warmer today and did not drop below freezing at the lowest elevations overnight. Very large avalanches could release naturally. Large human triggered avalanches are likely. Very large, destructive avalanches could run full path though mature trees and well out into run out zones. At the lower elevations wet slide activity is likely on a variety of aspects and may become widespread. Roof slides are a serious concern. Travel in avalanche terrain is not recommended.
