Look for and avoid wet snow on steep slopes at all elevations. Above-freezing temperatures, relatively light winds, and ample sunshine mean the most recent snow will shed off steep, sunny slopes. Rollerballs, pinwheels, and snow that wets your gloves when you squeeze it are signs the snow is wet. Rocky slopes are the most likely place to find wet snow. Start and end your day early to reduce your risk. Avoid traveling on or below slopes greater than about 35 degrees with wet snow.
There might be some lingering issues from wind-drifted snow. Steer around drifted pillows on steep leeward slopes below ridges, convex rollovers, and inside gullies.
