Lo esencial

Above-freezing temperatures last night and sunshine today will create a wet snow avalanche problem again.  This easy-to-identify problem will be most dangerous in steep, rocky, and confined terrain or above terrain traps. Seek out firmer snow or cooler slopes when snow surfaces become soft and wet. There is a  potential for naturally occurring wet slides so consider your exposure to terrain above you.

    Sunny skies, light winds and above-freezing temperatures last night continue to raise concerns for wet snow avalanches today. Some wet loose snow could move without a human trigger and in sunny couloirs, these could grow large enough to be dangerous. Don’t discount the force of moving wet snow and think about ways to avoid being on or under slopes that grow wet and sloppy today. If you start sinking to your boot-tops in wet snow, you’re in a bad spot.

    Avalanches such as this will continue to be a problem today. Though slow moving, wet avalanches are dense and powerfull and especially dangerous in gully features like the one pictured.

Avalanche Discussion

A number of wet loose avalanches were reported yesterday. Some of these were D2 in size and would be capable of burying a person if they weren’t so slow. The slow speed, limited distribution and plainly obvious nature of today’s avalanche problem is what keeps the danger at Moderate. Though natural avalanches are possible again today, in most cases these will not be as big as those started by a person pushing snow with skis or snowmachine. Natural activity in most areas may have peaked yesterday but continue to be wary of terrain features above you where more heat, a small rollerball, rock- or cornice-fall or some other natural trigger could entrain enough snow to be dangerous. Wet slabs are unlikely but don’t be surprised if a small wind slab from 1/29 came unglued from a mid-elevation ridge or a ledge.

Please consider sharing photos or a description of what you see in the mountains. Observations help everyone keep track of the wildly varying conditions throughout BTAC’s enormous forecast areas!
