    Expect slabs to be deeper and more reactive on west and north facing slopes due to moderate to strong southeast winds.

Confidence

Moderate

  • We are uncertain due to the track and intensity of the incoming weather system.
  • The snowpack structure is well understood.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported.

If you are heading into the backcountry, consider sharing your observations and posting a MIN.

Snowpack Summary

40-60 cm of new snow is this week , combined with moderate to strong South or Southeast winds will make deeper, denser deposits in leeward terrain.

Steep south through west facing slopes may have a thin, breakable crust under the new snow.

The thick and strong mid-March crust is now expected to be buried by 50-60 cm of mostly settled snow.

Below this, the rest of the snowpack is wet but well settled and strong.

There is little to no snow below 1000 m.
