    Watch for wind slabs on all aspects due to variable winds. These slabs are sitting on either a crust or a hard wind layer, and may be sensitive to human triggering in steep and unsupported terrain. Generally found above 2400m, but be alert for isolated wind slabs at lower elevations.

Confidence

Moderate -

Weather Forecast

High of -10, no snow and moderate NW winds.

Avalanche Summary

Nothing was seen today, but observations were very limited.

Snowpack Summary

Last week's storm snow continues to settle despite the cold temperatures. As expected, there is some surface faceting as well. The Feb 19th interface is improving, but still suspect. Especially on southern exposures where the crust is more prominent. And of course those windslabs are still out there in the alpine on all aspects.

Terrain and Travel

  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation and wind exposure.
  • Wind slabs may be poorly bonded to the underlying crust.
