Weather Forecast

A westerly flow continues and a much weaker front will track through bringing light precip, gusting west winds and rising freezing levels for Thur and Fri. Columbia Icefields Region:Thursday: Mainly Cloudy with isolated flurries, Treeline High Temp: -8. Ridge winds southwest 15km/h gusting 50km/h

Snowpack Summary

Windslabs in the alpine and treeline on N-E aspects. Previous old surfaces were; loose facets in sheltered terrain; wind affected in exposed areas; and, sun crust to treeline on solar aspects. The mid/lower snowpack is relatively strong for the region in deeper snowpack areas, and weak and facetted in shallow snowpack areas.

Avalanche Summary

A group of skiers triggered a large windslab avalanche in the backcountry near Marmot Basin Tuesday.A widespread cycle of small-large loose dry avalanches occurred Monday night during the snow and wind storm - these started small, but scrubbed down in to the facets.Several large windslab avalanches on alpine NE aspects also ran during the storm.

Confidence

The weather pattern is stable
