    We expect the sluffing to taper off in the next couple days. Continue to watch for wind loaded pockets of snow.

Weather Forecast

An additional 15-20cm is forecast overnight for alpine areas.  Clearing by midday on Sunday and cool and clear for the next few days.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 80cm of snow is present at higher elevations and the facetting process is well under way at the base of the snowpack. In places a thin wind slab exists over the facets. Expect sluffing in any steep terrain.

Avalanche Summary

Neighboring Kananaskis Country had a avalanche incident involving ice climbers today.  See the Kananaskis Public Safety Facebook site for more details.  Expect similar conditions in the Banff forecast region.
