Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches were observed on Sunday.

On Saturday, a few small size 1.0 dry-loose avalanches were observed in the park running from steep, rocky terrain features.

Snowpack Summary

5-15cm of recent snow covers widespread crusts on solar aspects and patchy surface hoar in sheltered areas.

The snowpack is generally strong and settled, however, the basal weakness of rounding facets/decomposing crust near the ground will remain a concern until the end of the season.

Weather Summary

A mix of sun and cloud for Monday with isolated convective flurries throughout the day. Temps will range from -6 to -12 with a freezing level up to 1500m. Winds will be 10-20km/hr from the NE.

Clear skies and light winds for Tuesday - Thursday.
