Heads up! An avalanche warning has been issued for the central cascades including Stevens and Snoqualmie pass. Triggering a slide is likely and will be big enough to bury or kill you. Avoid travel in or below avalanche terrain. Go to nwac.us for more information.
Mountain passes are in for another round of crazy weather. Before venturing out please check current Avalanche Forecasts at nwac.us Stay safe! - L3
