    Keep the recent avalanches in mind as you assess this layer. While not scary, or obvious at the moment, it is a problem that we will have to encounter and deal with one of these days. 

Avalanche Summary

A few minor loose dry "facalanches" were seen below cliffs. 

Snowpack Summary

30cm Storm snow now sits on top of the cold snap facets. There seems to be wide spread wind slabs (roughly 5cm thick) buried anywhere between 5-25cm in the Alpine and open Treeline. This is not showing any reactivity at this time.

Terrain and Travel

  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind affected terrain.
  • Watch for areas of hard wind slab on alpine features.

Weather Forecast

Is it bad when -24 sounds warm? "Only" -24 overnight with a high of about -16 tomorrow. Morning cloud will gradually clear by mid afternoon. A few flurries are expected, but nothing to write home about. Winds will be light from the SW.
