Lo esencial

Watch for surface snow losing cohesion. Rocks will warm fastest and become likely trigger points for wet avalanches.

Small wind slabs may be present on north aspect terrain in the alpine.

    Loose wet avalanches will be most likely on south facing slopes as temperatures rise.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Make observations and continually assess conditions as you travel.
  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.

Confidence

Moderate

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported recently.

Small pockets of wind slab may be found on high elevation slopes near ridgelines, and small wet loose avalanches are possible in areas that see strong sun.

Snowpack Summary

Dry snow and small wind slabs may exist on high elevation north-facing slopes. A crust exists elsewhere, including to mountain top on south facing slopes. Below the crust the snowpack is isothermal.
