Forecast Snow Stability: A return to milder conditions with the possibility of light rain will soften and moisten much of the remaining snow patches. These areas of remaining snow mainly exist in sheltered hollows, gullies and steep corrie rims on Northerly to Easterly aspects above 850 metres. Isolated areas of firm and icy snow may survive in sheltered locations such as gullies and hollows where stubborn old snow exists. Snow stability will remain generally good. The avalanche hazard will be Low.
