No recent avalanche activity has been reported. On Wednesday, numerous size 2 loose dry and storm slab avalanches were reported on all aspects in the south of the region, particularly in the Cheam area where the storm slabs were thicker.

5-15 cm of low density snow sits above a mix of hard wind affected snow and possibly crusts on south-facing features. Several crusts can be found 40-80 cm below the surface. At higher elevations cold temperatures have been working to facet and break down these crusts. In sheltered terrain at and below treeline, a layer of weak feathery surface hoar or sugary facets may be identified around these crusts, but this interface has produced little recent avalanche activity. The remainder of the snowpack is generally well-settled.
