Kernpunkte

The overall avalanche danger remains generally LOW on the Skyline today.

LOW danger does not mean NO danger. There is a threat of avalanches but that threat is pretty low and unlikely.

Move off steep slopes and stay out of steep walled gullies as the snow warms and gets wet and sloppy.

    The snowpack remains fairly quiet and there is not that much threat of avalanches. We're in a typical spring-like cycle:

    • The snow is freezes overnight and is very stable
    • During the day, the snow warms and gets wet and sloppy. It can get to the point where it gets unstable and produce wet avalanches.

    The rule of thumb in the spring is to not overstay your welcome later in the day when the snow is super wet. When it's sloppy, it's time to avoid being on or below steep slopes. It's very important to watch what's above you.

    Overall, wet avalanches are easy to avoid being caught in. Just pay attention.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions: Warm weather continues. Highs on Wednesday were into the upper 40s. Overnight lows were in the low to mid 30s. With clear skies overnight, the snow surface should be frozen despite fairly warm temperatures. The wind has been light to moderate in speed from the west.

Mountain Weather: We'll see highs in the mid 40s today with some high clouds moving through. It looks like it's going to get pretty windy from the south this afternoon. Friday will be slightly cooler and we'll have clouds moving in afternoon as the next storm approaches. We might pick up a little snow Friday night then another chance for snow on Saturday.
