AVWOTX
The Idaho Panhandle Avalanche Center in Sandpoint has issued a
BACKCOUNTRY AVALANCHE WARNING for Bonner and Boundary Counties.
This warning does not apply to local ski areas within the forecast
region.
* WHAT…An Avalanche Warning is in effect from Saturday 7 AM to
Sunday 7 AM. Very dangerous avalanches conditions will develop
from heavy snowfall and strong winds, and last through Sunday
morning. You can very easily trigger avalanches large enough to
bury or kill you, and some will release spontaneously. Avoid
travel in avalanche terrain during this period.
* WHERE…The Selkirk Mountains, and the West and East Cabinet
Mountains above 4,000 feet.
* WHEN…In effect from Sat 07:00 PST to Sun 07:00 PST.
* IMPACTS…Heavy snowfall is expected to overload pre-existing
weak snow layers. It will be very likely for backcountry
travelers to trigger avalanches and natural avalanches are
likely. Avalanches can break wide across terrain features and
run long distances to lower elevations.
* PRECAUTIONARY / PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS…Travel in avalanche
terrain is not recommended during this period.
