Kernpunkte

The Danger ratings are not likely to change much in the near future as no significant precipitation is expected. The snowpack is weak and unconsolidated. Many ice climbs are in great condition.

    Pockets of wind slabs can still be found in the Alpine and selected areas at Treeline. Any avalanche that is triggered will likely fail on the basal October crust (or the ground) and involve the entire winters snowpack.

Confidence

Good

Weather Forecast

Cloudy skies with moderate to strong winds are expected for the next couple of days. Only a trace amount of snow is expected in the next 4 days. Temperatures in the Alpine will top out near -12, but will feel much colder with the windchill.

Avalanche Summary

Nothing new reported or observed.

Snowpack Summary

Trace amounts of new snow overnight. Total snowpack depth is 55cm at 2250m. Snowpack is almost entirely facets with a little bit of depth hoar at the base. The October crust is still found in sheltered North and East aspects in the Alpine and selected areas at Treeline.
