    Though proving less reactive to natural loads this interface has yet been tested much underfoot. Tread cautiously, coming cool temps should tighten the bond over the old snow.

Weather Forecast

Progressive cooling overnight and continues through the week. For more details: Avalanche Canada's, Mountain Weather Forecast.

Snowpack Summary

30cm new since Saturday in the ice fields area. This is sitting on a variety of surfaces depending on elevation and aspect. Surface hoar may be preserved in sheltered locations. The snow seems to be bonding well to previous surfaces at all elevations.
