Avalanche Advisory For Tuesday, March 17, 2026 - 6:07am
Bottom Line
This morning, avalanche danger is LOW, and the snowpack is generally stable. Mountain travel carries inherent risks, and Normal Caution is advised. Throughout the day, avalanche danger may rise to MODERATE as temperatures climb and skies remain clear. Small wet loose avalanches on sunny, wind-sheltered slopes may become possible. Pay attention to changing conditions; if a slope becomes unsupportable, it’s time to switch aspects. The high winds should keep most of the wet snow at bay today, but expect avalanche danger to increase over the next few days with this significant warm-up. Continue to avoid glide avalanche terrain such as Stairs Gulch, Broads Fork, Mill B South, and the Porter Slabs in upper Porter Fork.
