...SPECIAL AVALANCHE STATEMENT...

The Chugach NF Avalanche Information Center in Girdwood
has issued a SPECIAL AVALANCHE STATEMENT for the following areas:
South Fork Eagle River, Chugach State Park, Girdwood, Portage,
Turnagain Pass, Moose Pass, Summit Lake, and Seward From 6 am
Sunday, Jan 11 to 6 am Monday, Jan 12.

* WHAT...Unusually dangerous avalanche conditions exist in the
backcountry.Avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE.

* WHERE...For the Western Chugach and Kenai Mountains in and
around Anchorage, Girdwood, Portage, Turnagain Pass, Summit
Lake, Moose Pass, Lost Lake, and Seward.

* WHEN...In effect from Sunday 6:00 am to Monday 6:00 am AKST.

* IMPACTS...Very large human-triggered avalanches are likely.
Despite clear skies and nicer weather, the snowpack is very
unstable and dangerous avalanches can be easily triggered by
people. It is likely avalanches may be triggered remotely from
flat terrain below steeper slopes.

* PRECAUTIONARY / PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... If deciding to recreate in
the backcountry, choose low-angle terrain with nothing steeper
above you. Cautious route-finding and conservative decision-
making skills will be necessary to identify and avoid slopes
that could avalanche.

Similar avalanche danger may exist at locations outside the
coverage area of this or any avalanche center.
