No new avalanches have been reported in this region but observations have been limited.

If you are heading into the backcountry, please consider sharing your observations with the Mountain Information Network.

20 to 40 cm of recent storm snow, that was accompanied by moderate southwest wind, overlies the early February crust/facet layer.

Another widespread crust/facet layer from late January is buried 30 to 60 cm deep.

The mid and lower snowpack is generally well settled and strong.
