Kernpunkte

Avalanche Season is just starting. The main concern at this time is pockets of windslabs in Alpine terrain.  These problems are commonly found in ice climbing terrain so be sure to carefully evaluate climbing routes and overhead terrain.

    Wahrscheinlichkeit
    Possible - Likely
    Größe
    1–3
    Isolated pockets of windslabs should be expected in lee features in Alpine terrain.  Small avalanches can have large consequences in gullied terrain so ice climbers...heads up.

Confidence

Fair - Due to limited field observations for the entire period

Weather Forecast

Dribs and drabs of new snow will continue to fall over the next few weeks as winter slowly arrives.  Watch for rapid rises in temperature to above freezing with associated rain.  This will increase associated avalanche danger.

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanche observations.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 30cm of snow in alpine terrain.  Pockets of windslabs and hardslabs in Alpine areas.
