Moderate danger rating represents a heightened avalanche conditions, human triggered avalanches are possible. This is not the green light to go everywhere.
Weather Forecast
Cooling with broken skies. No precip forecasted for the near future. Winds will remain light to moderate out of SW.
Snowpack Summary
Wind slabs in exposed lee features. A significant crust (black friday, Nov.23) can be found down 30 to 70cms. A persistent slab overlays this crust and so far the bond appears to be strengthening at this interface. The Halloween crust sits well down in the snowpack at TL locations and as high as 2700m.
Avalanche Summary
No new avalanches observed or reported
Problems
Wind Slabs
Wind Slab avalanches are the release of a cohesive layer of snow (a slab) formed by the wind. Wind typically transports snow from the upwind sides of terrain features and deposits snow on the downwind side. Wind slabs are often smooth and rounded and sometimes sound hollow, and can range from soft to hard. Wind slabs that form over a persistent weak layer (surface hoar, depth hoar, or near-surface facets) may be termed Persistent Slabs or may develop into Persistent Slabs.
