Lo esencial

Strong to extreme winds coupled with warm temperatures are creating hard, easily-triggered windslabs in most treeline lee features as well as pockets of the alpine that are sheltered enough to hold snow.

    Anywhere from 5-35cm of new snow fell Saturday evening. Warm temperatures and winds have stiffened the storm snow into a more cohesive soft slab layer. Some pockets of soft slab may release from skier presence.

    Basal facet collapses are still being noted in test pits below midpack bridging layers. Shallow snowpack areas and rocky outcrops are likely trigger locations.
