    The surface remains dry and powdery in most areas so expect sluffing in steep terrain. Remember to use good sluff management techniques.

Avalanche Summary

No avalanches have been reported in the past week.

Snowpack Summary

Soft snow remains in sheltered areas, while wind-affected snow is present in open alpine terrain. A late-January weak layer (hard crust, facets, or surface hoar) is buried 80 to 100 cm deep, but the overlying snow lacks slab properties, so it is not currently a concern. The lower snowpack is strong and bonded.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Make observations and continually assess conditions as you travel.
  • The best and safest riding will be on slopes that have soft snow without any slab properties.
  • Be careful with sluffing in steep terrain, especially above cliffs and terrain traps.
