Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanche observations have been reported but fresh storm slams are growing and will be touchy. If you have been out in the mountains, please submit your observations to the Mountain Information Network (MIN).

Snowpack Summary

New snow over Tuesday night and Wednesday have added to storm slabs at higher elevations, which are especially deep and touchy on leeward slopes and in exposed areas. Total snowpack depths are likely around 160cm at treeline and over 2 metres at higher elevations. Aside from instabilities in storm snow, warm temperatures are promoting rapid settlement and strengthening of the snowpack.
