Kernpunkte

Assess steep lines before committing.

Small, isolated wind slabs may be reactive due to the surface hoar beneath them.

Confidence

High

  • We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.

Avalanche Summary

On Monday and Tuesday the recent snow produce sluffing in steep terrain and a few small, isolated wind slabs.

Snowpack Summary

The snow surface is variable. On sheltered features up to 10 cm of recent snow sits over a surface hoar crust combo. In sun exposed terrain a sun crust is likely, on high north facing terrain some dry snow may still be found.

The mid and lower snowpack is well settled.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.
  • Carefully evaluate big and steep terrain features before committing to them.
  • Wind slabs are isolated, but may remain reactive.
