Thank you for sharing your observations by posting a MIN!

Snowpack Summary

Approximately 10 cm of snow overlies a thick, supportive crust extending to mountaintops. At higher elevations, southwesterly winds have stripped surfaces back to the crust and formed isolated pockets of wind slab.

The remainder of the snowpack is well-settled and strong.

Mostly clear skies. 1 to 2 cm of snow. 30 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -9 °C.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.
  • Pay attention to isolated wind affected features in the alpine, as well as cross-loaded features at treeline.
  • Use caution above cliffs and terrain traps where even small avalanches may have severe consequences.
