Lo esencial

Generally stable conditions. Pay attention to the Jan 24 Surface hoar layer down 25-35 cm that is located in specific areas at treeline and below. We have not seen any recent action on this layer in this region, but is worth checking for before committing to bigger slopes.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches observed or reported today for this area. But check out the recent avalanches in the Kootenay and Yoho Sub-regions.

Snowpack Summary

15-25 cm recent low density snow, with minimal wind effect, overlays sun-crusts on solar aspects and scoured terrain in alpine. In some areas, the Jan 24 layer (surface hoar/crust) is down 25–35 cm at treeline and below. (Check for this layer before committing to bigger terrain). Below this, the snowpack is generally strong and well settled.
