    Thin, old, hard wind slabs may be lurking on lee and cross-loaded terrain at and above treeline, and fresher ones in glacial drainages from recent downslope winds. Cornices are fragile and may collapse, especially during warm periods.

Snowpack Summary

A variable snow surface generally includes light amounts of wind-distributed fresh snow on a supportive crust with surface hoar or surface facets, all breaking down to corn snow on south aspects in the afternoon. But in general the snowpack is strong.

Confidence

Good
