Avalanche Summary
No recent avalanches were reported. Avalanche activity is unlikely anywhere a hard melt-freeze crust is on the surface.
Snowpack Summary
A hard melt-freeze crust is found on the snow surface across the region. The crust is thickest at low elevations and thins as you move higher and onto shady aspects. The crust may not exist on the highest of mountains in alpine terrain on north aspects, where consolidated dry snow may be found.
The remainder of the snowpack is well-bonded.
Terrain and Travel
- When a thick, melt-freeze surface crust is present, avalanche activity is unlikely.
