Weather Forecast

The cold will continue until Friday when we see a warm up. No new snow expected Wednesday and up to 18cm by Friday evening. Moderate SW winds

Avalanche Summary

Some loose dry sluffs in Steep E facing alpine terrain up to Sz 2 noted in the Goat range today. 

No new slab activity.

Snowpack Summary

10-15cm overnight adds to the 15cm from Monday. 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.
