Large human-triggered avalanches are likely on sheltered, steep slopes and near cornices and ridgelines. Unstable areas of wind-drifted new snow are also possible, and most likely on east through northwest aspects. Persistent slab avalanches may be triggered remotely (from above, below, or on adjacent slopes). Cautious route-finding and good travel protocols are necessary, and the snowpack should be evaluated in a safe place. Keep your eyes on your partners.

The Payette Avalanche Center is now on the Avy App! Here you can find information similar to what you would find on our website including avalanche forecasts, weather forecasts, weather station data, and observations. You’ll find consolidated forecast views that aggregate all the information in one zone to minimize time spent looking for information. You will also find optimized weather tables and data that were specifically designed for mobile devices and easy viewing. Another benefit of this app is the ability to look at avalanche forecasts offline (view it once while connected first). In addition, you can now submit observations straight from the field. The app will cache your observation and automatically submit it whenever you reach service.
Submitting observations has never been easier!
