Kernpunkte

While conditions may be favorable for venturing into bigger terrain, use extra caution in steep, consequential terrain where a fall or small avalanche could have serious consequences.

Confidence

High

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanche activity has been reported.

If you are headed into the backcountry please consider submitting a MIN report.

Snowpack Summary

Snow surfaces are highly variable; in exposed terrain at higher elevations, previously wind-affected snow exists, while a crust is present on most south-facing slopes and lower elevations.

The mid and lower snowpack is generally well-settled and bonded with no layers of concern.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • If you are increasing your exposure to avalanche terrain, do it gradually as you gather information.
  • Use caution above cliffs and terrain traps where even small avalanches may have severe consequences.
  • Carefully evaluate steep lines for wind slabs.
  • A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.
