Lo esencial

The biggest issue is the facetted structure of the upper snowpack. The propensity for skier or cornice triggered loose dry avalanches persists in steep confined gulleys on ice routes as well as large, steep & uniform ski slopes.

Weather Forecast

Mainly cloudy with sunny breaks with a snowball's chance in hell of new snow.  Winds will be westerly moderate to strong in the alpine.  Freezing levels will be at valley bottom for Sunday.

Avalanche Summary

Some loose snow avalanches reported and observed up to 1.5 with skier traffic or from explosive control work.

Snowpack Summary

Little to no change in the snowpack other than a paltry 5 centimeters of new snow on the 14th of January.  The snowpack areas that have 70-80 centimeters or more supports well enough and below threshold depth, the snowpack has little to offer in the way of structure or support.  The entire upper third of the snowpack is facetted in the alpine and treeline and below it is rotten right to the ground.
