Forecast Snow Stability: The snowpack will soften and continue thawing and consolidating in the mild conditions. Stability will generally be good. However, a few cornices will remain at the top of North to East facing gullies above 1100 metres, and these will be prone to collapse. The avalanche hazard will be Low
