Avalanche Forecast - Mt Hood

  • Alpine: Moderate
  • Treeline: Moderate
  • Below Treeline: Low

<p>Firm morning snow will give way to wet snow instabilities as the morning heats up. A couple of small, human-triggered wet loose avalanches were reported on Saturday during the heat of the day; expect this to continue on Sunday as freezing levels remain elevated. Pay close attention to your position, timing, and consider moving out of steep terrain of consequence if the snow feels sticky or starts shedding downhill.&nbsp;</p>
