This bulletin was produced with very little field data. Significant snowpack variation is likely to exist. Please send your observations to [email protected].

Lawinenprobleme

  • Wind Slabs

    • Hochgebirge
    • Waldgrenze
    • Unterhalb der Waldgrenze
    Wahrscheinlichkeit
    Possible
    Größe
    1–2
    A majority of the region is reported to be below avalanche threshold. The exception is may be where wind has deposited snow in isolated lee terrain features, behind ridge crests and gulleys.

  • Loose Wet

    • Hochgebirge
    • Waldgrenze
    • Unterhalb der Waldgrenze
    Wahrscheinlichkeit
    Unlikely - Possible
    Größe
    1–2
    The potential for sunny breaks and forecasted warm temperatures may trigger loose wet avalanches on steep sun-exposed slopes.

Confidence

Poor - Due to the number of field observations

Snowpack Summary

The few reports we have received suggest there is little snow across the region. One operator is reporting 50cms of snow at 1100m. The region has seen its fair share of wind in the past week and spatial variability in snow depth likely exists. By and large, most of the region is below threshold except for where the wind may have re-distributed snow into pockets of wind slabs. Keep in mind these pockets of snow that may be enticing to ride are the same slopes that may be the most likely to slide. If you are looking for more information, refer to the Northwest Coastal Bulletin for an idea of what may be happening in some of the deeper snowpack parts of the region.
