#COAvalancheInfo MOD(2of 5) Start and end your day early. If you are sinking in deep wet snow or see natural avalanche activity you are too late. Large wet slabs are occurring on northerly slopes. Be careful there. Avoid this terrain if shallow/rocky. colorado.gov/avalanche

The avalanche danger is MODERATE (2 of 5), and you are most likely to trigger a dangerous avalanche in steep, above-treeline areas that face northwest, north, and northeast. Some avalanches may run naturally, and wet slab avalanches can run a long way. Colorado.gov/avalanche
