Lo esencial

The avalanche danger is MODERATE where sunshine and very warm temperatures will create conditions for avalanches involving wet loose snow and possibly wet slabs. Cornices may collapse naturally, possibly avalanching the slope below. (Portions of the danger rose colored gray indicate little to no snow.)

Keep people and pets from underneath steep, snow-covered roofs as roof avalanches can be expected in mountain communities.

    Sunshine and very warm temperatures will quickly soften snow surfaces today, with the following wet snow issues:

    WET AVALANCHES: These will involve loose, wet snow but larger wet slab avalanches are possible, including mid and upper elevation northerly aspects. Once the snow surface becomes unsupportable, it's time to find a cooler aspect or return to the trailhead.

    CORNICES: Cornices may naturally calve off naturally, possibly triggering an avalanche on the slope below.

    ROOF AVALANCHES - where a roof sheds its snowpack - remain a significant objective hazard in mountain communities. Do not let children play underneath steeper, snowfilled roofs. A roof fatality occurred as recently as April 2023 in the Brighton township where an adult was working (likely) underneath a roof that avalanched on top of them.
