Kernpunkte

LARGE AND DANGEROUS HUMAN TRIGGERED AVALANCHES ARE STILL LIKELY TODAY!!

The avalanche danger is CONSIDERABLE on upper elevation northwest, north, northeast, and east facing slopes.

If you avoid the terrain described above, the avalanche danger is much lower.

    We probably hit the apex of the avalanche danger in relation to the buried persistent weak layer of sugary facets from Jan/Feb. Things will become more stubborn and less likely to trigger. That said, conditions still remain dangerous and human triggered avalanches are still very likely right now. The problem with a buried layer of loose sugary snow is that it is very slow to stabilize and gain strength. Warmer springtime temperatures will speed the process but I guarantee that things are not stable yet. When? I'm unsure of that. We will just have to watch the weather and snowpack.
