Lo esencial

We have received a dusting of new snow and can expect more tomorrow. Avalanche problems will depend partly on temperatures. Watch freezing levels and aspects and expect a change in hazard if it warms up.

Problemas de aludes

    These will be more of a problem on high, polar aspects.
  • Persistent Slabs

    These should be high on the radar these days. Natural activity has slowed but not stopped.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches were observed today, however observations were limited

Snowpack Summary

Another day of warm temps has settled the snowpack even more. Some areas saw up to 5cm of new snow last night. A melt/freeze crust is on all lower aspects and extends to treeline on solar aspects. Because of settlement the Jan 6 facet layer is down 40-70cm at treeline and starting to bond to the upper layers. Having said that, polar aspects are still suspect due to the locally cooler temps. Snow depths are 134cm at Burstall Pass & 98cm at Mud Lake
