Chic-Choc Mountains, Chic-Chocs.

The main danger remains the ice crust and the risk of falling. On Monday, take advantage of the nice weather to practice moving efficiently with crampons once again.

Confidence

High

  • We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been observed or reported.

If you head into the backcountry, thanks for sharing your observations on the Mountain Information Network (MIN).

Snowpack Summary

There is 2 to 5 cm of fresh snow lying on a widespread refrozen crust, which is sometimes solid and sometimes unable to support a skier’s weight; this is present throughout the mountains. Beneath this crust, the snowpack is well-consolidated. The entire snowpack is dry, apart from the base, which is damp.

At mid-mountain, the average depth of the snowpack is around 120 cm.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Although avalanches are unlikely when a hard crust exists on the snow surface, the crust may pose a slip and fall hazard.
