The general avalanche is MODERATE above 8,000 feet. There, backcountry travelers could trigger 
recently developed wind slabs one to three feet in depth. Any extended periods of sunshine will 
make these slides more susceptible to failure on sunlit aspects as the day warms. Moderate hazard 
is not a green light; getting caught in one of these slides has the potential for severe 
consequences and caution is advised. Below 8,000 feet, the hazard is LOW and avalanches are 
unlikely except in very steep, wind loaded terrain where skiers or riders might be able to trigger 
an isolated pocket of shallow wind slab.
