Lo esencial

10 cm of new snow with little wind improved the travel conditions but did very little to increase the avalanche danger. Caution is still advised for older windslabs lingering on steep open slopes.

    There is still a real possibility of triggering a wind slab on the right slope. Steep unsupported slopes near ridgecrests are the most likely terrain and should be avoided.

  • Cornices

    Wind earlier in the week has created some ripe touchy cornices. Some older cornices are starting to cleave off as well.
