  Thin windslabs exist at treeline and in the alpine. These are faceting out with the cold temperatures, but may be triggered by riders in the next few days. An avalanche on this layer may be enough to step down to the basal facets.

  Climbers should avoid Cascade Falls and Rogan's Gully this weekend. There is a large amount of snow above these routes and with the coming storm and warm temp's, natural avalanches will threaten routes with large bowls above.

  Cold temperatures are facetting a well settled midpack which overrides a weaker facetted base. This weak base is found most places except the west side of the divide. Many thin spots exist in the alpine and treeline due to previous strong winds.
