Lake Cathrine is something you should be wary of right now avalanche wise. I was up at Alta today and there were a few wet sluffs triggered in the afternoon and evidence of some larger sluffs with ocassional rockfall.
A good rule of thumb is if you sink past your ankle in the snowpack you are in danger. Aspect, elevation, time of day, duration of a nightly re-freeze, temp, weather, etc. all play a big part in Spring Conditions.
It will be safe at Lake Mary though.
