Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Storm slab size and sensitivity to triggering will likely increase through the day.
  • Dial back your terrain choices if you are seeing more than 20 cm of new snow.
  • Use small, low consequence slopes to test the bond of the new snow.
  • The best and safest riding will be on slopes that have soft snow without any slab properties.
