It's a good time to explore before the next storm hits.

Continue to practice good travel habits!

• Make observations and continually assess conditions as you travel.
• Watch for areas of hard wind slab on alpine features.
• A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.

No new avalanches have been reported since Saturday.

Please consider sharing your observations through the Mountain Information Network.

5 to 10 cm of soft snow which is slowly adding up sits on a thick, supportive rain crust. At higher elevations, there may be deeper deposits of wind-loaded snow up to around 30 cm.

The remainder of the snowpack is dry, with small faceted crystals down to the ground. 

Snow depths vary significantly, between 70 to 130 cm around the White Pass.
