Weather Forecast

Wednesday will have sunny periods and isolated flurries with a high of -11c.  Ridge winds will be 20-40km/h from the West.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches were observed.

Snowpack Summary

The Burstall Pass area received about 10cm during the day which made for good skiing.  There was wind in the alpine today and forecast to continue until tomorrow so be aware of lee loaded areas and the continuing growth of the slabs in the alpine.  There is about 50-60cm now that is sitting on the Dec 15 surface hoar layer and will become more of a concern if it gets more load.
