    Daytime warming will weaken cornices. Stay well back of them on ridges and limit travel beneath them. A cornice release could trigger old wind slabs on slopes below.

Avalanche Summary

We haven't received any reports of avalanche activity on this region.

Please consider sharing your observations to the Mountain Information Network.

Snowpack Summary

Around 15 cm of soft and dry snow may be found in high elevation northerly alpine terrain, with deeper deposits possible in immediate lee features. Elsewhere, a hard melt-freeze crust exists, which will soften with daytime warming.

There are no deeper layers of concern at this time.
