Several Avalanche Warnings and Watches are in effect across the state as more snow and strong winds start to move into Colorado.
Four zones in Colorado are under an Avalanche Warning as new snow and winds continue to overload fragile snowpack, meaning very dangerous avalanche conditions exist, according to the Colorado Avalanche Information Center. The chances of large, wide and deadly avalanches are high in the Vail and Summit County, Sawatch, Aspen, and Gunnison zones. These kinds of avalanches will likely happen naturally and will be easy to trigger.
