Lo esencial

As the day warms and the sun shines, the surface crust will melt, increasing loose wet avalanche potential.

    Once the warm weather and sun breaks down the surface crust, loose wet avalanches are possible.

Confidence

High

  • Confidence is due to a stable weather pattern with little change expected.

Avalanche Summary

A large wet avalanche cycle occurred during the tail end of our most recent storm. The rain has stopped, and a crust now caps the wet snow. As the crust deteriorates during the day, loose wet avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Summary

A thin crust overlies a saturated snowpack. Our most recent storm snow is fully rain-soaked. The thin surface crust that formed overnight will break down as the day warms.

The mid and lower snowpack is well-bonded. Two crusts exist down 50 and 150 cm. These crusts are not currently a concern. The height of snow is currently 100-200 cm at treeline.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
  • A moist or wet snow surface, pinwheeling, and natural avalanches are all indicators of a weakening snowpack.
