Here is an excert from the NWAC avy forecast. Please be careful out there.
"In any case, some slides should run full depth and range
up to 6 to 10 feet deep or more, with some running full
path distance, expanding or extending current paths and
destroying mature timber. Note that while some very large
avalanches are expected, even small slides may produce
injury or death. In some ways, extreme danger does not
adequately emphasize the extent of the anticipated
avalanche potential. Back country travel near or on
steeper snow covered terrain should be avoided, and
travelers should confine travel to flat terrain well away
from avalanche path runouts."
Basically they are saying that there will be numerous avys just like the one at Gallagher last year and probably even worse.
