Snowfall amounts vary, if you are seeing 35 cm or more of fresh snow, increase danger by one step.
Moderate snowfall is expected to build reactive slabs overnight Wednesday. Expect slabs to be deeper and more reactive on west and north facing slopes due to moderate to strong southeast winds.
No new avalanches have been reported.
If you are heading into the backcountry, consider sharing your observations and posting a MIN.
20-40 cm of new snow is this week , combined with moderate to strong South or Southeast winds will make deeper, denser deposits in leeward terrain.
Steep south through west facing slopes may have a thin, breakable crust under the new snow.
The thick and strong mid-March crust is now expected to be buried by 50-60 cm of mostly settled snow.
Below this, the rest of the snowpack is wet but well settled and strong.
There is little to no snow below 1000 m.
