Be extremely aware of the avi hazard at the ice caves. Avi's are the reason there is ice there at all. With all the recent snow and fluctuating freezing levels, there is a good chance a big fatty will crush you and your partner. With that said, have fun! wink.gif

Looking out my window and considering the weather forecast, I would not think the avalanche hazard likely to be extreme at the Big Four ice caves this week. It rained to the summit on Saturday night, and the freezing level is expected to be steadily dropping through the end of the week, with intermittent showers but no big dump expected. It might not be nice weather, but I think one could probably go to the ice caves without getting buried. That having been said, the Forest Service is absolutely right and those orange warning signs are 100% accurate. Don't blame me if you die.
