Safe spots to ride given current avy conditions

[FlipsM8]

Looking to ride this Sunday (1/15), but trying to avoid any avilanche danger given the current forecast.

So far I've only ridden around trails in Vail Pass.

Would the shrine bowl be safe, or are there any better places to ride without possible issues?

Trying to figure this out with a topography map isn't the best...

Thanks,
-Matt

You can always stay off the slopes and ride in the trees.

Think Shrine is one of the worst spots, at least for slopes?




The little maps they have at the parking lot have some of the avi areas marked.

I have extensive experience with VP. Shrine Bowl is a bad avy area when avy danger isn't bad. It probably already slid with current conditions. Avoid Shrine bowl and there is a ton of good riding at VP.

It's really simple right now. Be disciplined and stay off the hills. They are bad m'kay?
