Avalanche Summary
No recent avalanches reported.
Snowpack Summary
The upper snowpack and snow surface are currently undergoing faceting due to the cold temperatures. Wind exposed areas are heavily scoured and leeward features may have a thin wind crust or small isolated wind slabs. Sun exposed slopes have a sun crust but this is reported to be breaking down with the ongoing surface faceting. In sheltered areas, several centimetres of dry snow may overlie a layer of surface hoar. The mid and lower snowpack are well settled and there are currently no layers of concern. However, in thinner snowpack areas, a weak basal layer of facets or depth hoar may still be a concern.
