Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches observed or reported, but check out the Yoho and Kootenay sub regions for recent activity in those areas.

Snowpack Summary

5 cm of overnight snow makes for 10-20 cm of soft surface snow in sheltered north facing alpine areas that diminishes with elevation. The new snow overlies crusts on solar aspects and wind effect in exposed alpine areas. In isolated areas the Jan 24 layer (surface hoar/crust) is down 15-30 cm at treeline and below. Beneath this interface the snowpack is generally strong and well settled.

Weather Summary

Sunday: A weak ridge will bring clearing skies and dry conditions. Light to moderate west winds. Tree-line temps ~-7°C.

Monday: Trace of snow during day that picks up in evening. 5-10cm expected by Tuesday morning. Light SW winds, treeline temperatures ~-7°C.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
