ANCHORAGE, Alaska—
Avalanche experts with the Chugach National Forest warn people traveling in the Turnagain Arm area Wednesday that avalanche danger is high.
The Chugach National Forest Avalanche Information Center urges extra caution around the Kenai and western Chugach mountains.
The center says Wednesday’s clear weather does not mean a reduction in the avalanche hazard, with dangerous human-triggered avalanches likely in less-traveled areas.
People without expert-level avalanche skills are urged to stay out of the backcountry.
