Kernpunkte

Storm slabs are expected to remain reactive to human triggers, especially in wind loaded features

Choose conservative slopes, free from overhead hazard.

Avalanche Summary

Reports in this area are limited but we expect natural and human triggered avalanches within the recent storm snow.

Snowpack Summary

30 cm of recent snow has been redistributed by strong westerly winds. This sits over dry snow on high north-facing slopes and over a crust elsewhere. The upper snowpack is generally moist, with a crust from last week's rain event.

Below treeline elevations hold moist, isothermal snow.

A surface hoar layer is buried 70-120 cm deep on sheltered north and east alpine slopes. No recent avalanches have been reported, it remains a possibility for triggering with heavy loads like cornice falls.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Continue to make conservative terrain choices while the storm snow settles and stabilizes.
  • Be careful with wind-loaded pockets, especially near ridge crests and rollovers.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
