Moderate

  • We are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported recently, but observations have been very limited.

Be sure to post your observations to the MIN if you get out; they are a big help!

Snowpack Summary

Recent snowfall was followed by strong northeast winds, creating heavily wind-affected surfaces in exposed terrain at all elevations.

A supportive crust is widespread, now down roughly 20 to 50 cm from the surface.

There are no current layers of concern in the mid or lower snowpack.
