Weather Forecast

Temperatures are staying warm through the weekend with the possibility of flurries. Winds look to remain moderate to strong from the west.

Snowpack Summary

The Waterton townsite has had daytime temperatures above freezing which is quickly settling the snow-pack. The top 5cm of the snow-pack is moist but continues to be dry below. Moderate to strong west wind has moved lots of snow around at ridge-top. Wind exposed areas are windblown to ground except for deposition zones and gullies.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches
