Avalanche Summary
Many small wet loose avalanches were observed during the relatively warm and sunny weekend. Avalanche activity is expected to quiet down as the weather cools and the snowpack hardens. Avalanche activity is unlikely anywhere a hard melt-freeze crust is on the surface.
Snowpack Summary
A hard melt-freeze crust is likely found on the surface everywhere in the mountains. The crust is thickest at low elevations and likely thins as you move higher and onto shady aspects. The remainder of the snowpack is well-bonded.
Terrain and Travel
- When a thick, melt-freeze surface crust is present, avalanche activity is unlikely.
