Avalanche Summary
No recent avalanche activity has been reported.
Snowpack Summary
Expect to find anywhere from 0 to 20 cm of new snow atop a widespread melt-freeze crust at higher elevations. The remainder of the snowpack, below the crust, is generally settled and well-bonded.
Below treeline, slopes are largely below the threshold for avalanches.

Terrain and Travel Advice
- When a thick, melt-freeze surface crust is present, avalanche activity is unlikely.
- A moist or wet snow surface, pinwheeling and natural avalanches are all indicators of a weakening snowpack.
- Minimize exposure to sun-exposed slopes when the solar radiation is strong.
