Turnagain Advisory
Sunday, January 20th 2019 A generally LOW avalanche danger exists in Turnagain Pass at all elevations.

In these areas, triggering a slab avalanche up to a foot thick is trending to unlikely, but may still be possible on steep slopes. In all areas, watch for small slabs in steep rocky terrain, sluffs in steep terrain and cornice falls. Glide cracks are still slowly moving and limit exposure under these.
SUMMIT LAKE / JOHNSON PASS: A poor snowpack structure exists in this area, which is very different than Turnagain Pass. Triggering a slab avalanche is trending toward unlikely, yet may not be out of the question. …
