Avalanche Summary
Small, wet loose avalanches likely occurred Saturday afternoon but observations in this region are limited.
Snowpack Summary
A thin crust may exist early in the morning but it will break down quickly. The snow below is likely wet.
A thick crust can be found down 10 to 30 cm at treeline and above. The snowpack below this crust is well settled and strong.
At low elevations the snowpack is disappearing quickly. Where snow remains it is isothermal.
