Weather Forecast

Tuesday will be mainly cloudy with no precipitation expected. Winds will be out of the SW at 25km/h at ridge-top and Alpine temperatures should reach a high of -8 °C. Longer range forecasts are calling for a small amount of new snow (around 5cm) to fall on Thursday.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches observed or reported in the past 48hrs.

Snowpack Summary

At treeline up to 20cm of low density snow is overlying Nov 12th crust. Isolated wind slabs are present in the Alpine in lee and cross loaded features. There is an average of 50-60cm of snow at 2200m and this depth tapers quickly with elevation.
