New snow on Friday increases your chance of triggering avalanches in steep and extreme terrain. Avalanches triggered are expected to be small in size, but even a small avalanche can be dangerous if it carries you into a terrain trap, like rocks or a cliff.
Sun and warming over the weekend could increase the chances for wet avalanches on steep slopes.
