    A storm on December 23 dropped between 15 to 30 cm of low density snow over the forecast region. Variable� winds have created some wind slabs within the storm snow at ridge top elevations.

Weather Forecast

Light N to NW winds and a stable, clearing trend for the next 3 days.  Freezing levels will remain at valley bottom through this time.

Snowpack Summary

Profile at 2140m in Kootenay found HS 140-150 with no compression results. 30cm low density on settled midpack in that area. The basal Nov.6 crust W of divide less visible and is bonded very well.  On thin areas E of the divide the crust is facetting and weakening. Windslabs 20-40cm thick to 1 finger stiffness found on lees of ridges in the alpine.
