id 017 (bonner county)...Id 021 (boundary county)...Id 079 (shoshone county)
* what...An avalanche warning is in effect from saturday 6 am to sunday

snowfall and strong winds. you can very easily trigger avalanches large
enough to bury or kill you, and some will release spontaneously. avoid
travel in avalanche terrain during this period.
* where...The selkirk, west and east cabinet, and bitterroot mountains -
silver valley above 4,000 feet.
* when...In effect from sat 06:00 pdt to sun 06:00 pdt.
* impacts...The combination of heavy snowfall and strong winds has formed
dangerous slabs of snow two to three feet thick that are overloading weaker
snow layers directly below the new snow. it will be very likely for
backcountry travelers to trigger large to very large avalanches in the new
snow and natural avalanches are likely. avalanches can break wide across
terrain features and run long distances to lower elevations and into mature
forests.
* precautionary / preparedness actions...Travel in avalanche terrain is not
recommended during this period.
