Kernpunkte

Assess conditions as you travel, and avoid exposure to large, overhanging cornices

    Cornice failures are destructive on their own and often break farther back from the ridgeline than expected.

Confidence

Moderate

  • We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.
  • We are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations.
