Lo esencial

Cornice falls may trigger large avalanches on slopes below.

Avoid traveling on slopes below cornices and give them a wide berth while traveling on ridetops.

Problemas de aludes

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Possible
    Tamaño
    1–2

    Warm temperatures may increase the likelihood of triggering slabs, especially in steep, rocky, alpine terrain.

  • Cornices

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Possible
    Tamaño
    1.5–2.5

    Use extra caution around cornices: they are large, fragile, and can trigger slabs on slopes below.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches were reported on Saturday.

NOTE: Observations are currently very limited in this region.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 15 cm of recent snow in the alpine and strong variable wind may have formed small wind slabs on a variety of aspects at upper elevations. The recent snow sits on top a crust.

Recent snow amounts taper quickly with elevation.

The snowpack is generally well-settled and strong.

Lower elevations are melting out rapidly.
