Assess terrain carefully and practice good group management
The best riding may be on the same features where triggering an avalanche is most likely
This layer remains a concern in high north facing terrain where the snowpack depth is variable or a cornice hangs above the slope.
No slab avalanches were reported in the past 4 days.
A new crust likely exists on the surface except on high north facing terrain, where around 5 cm of snow overlies a crust from earlier in March. This second crust likely doesn’t exist above 2100 m.
A layer of facets and surface hoar from mid February can be found down around 40 cm.
Another layer of facets and surface hoar from late January can be found down 60 to 80 cm.
The lower snowpack contain several crusts that are not concerning.
