Natural and human-triggered avalanches large enough to bury people are almost certain. Some avalanches will be large enough to snap trees and damage structures. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Avoid all avalanche terrain, including flat ground below steep slopes-slopes steeper than about 30 degrees. Avalanches may be triggered remotely-from flat terrain above, below, and to the sides of steep slopes. Natural and human-triggered avalanches may run long distances and can impact the valley bottom. Consult WWW.PAYETTEAVALANCHE.ORG or WWW.AVALANCHE.ORG for more detailed information. Similar avalanche danger may exist at locations outside the coverage area of this or any avalanche center.
