Carefully identify and evaluate wind loaded terrain when travelling in the alpine.
The recent storm snow has settled nicely, and with lighter winds there’s still some fantastic skiing to be found out there.
No road patrol was completed today.
We received a report of a large avalanche on the NE slopes of Snowdome, though the exact timing is unknown.
On Sunday, the Icefields team observed numerous loose dry avalanches up to size 1.5. They also noted a size 2 slab avalanche in the fan of a couloir on Snowdome.
The previous 40 cm of storm snow remains light but is settling well.
Previous moderate southwesterly winds have created windslabs in the alpine.
The mid pack generally consists of firm windpressed snow from earlier wind events. Snow cover in the alpine varies greatly, with some areas blown free of snow, while other areas are filled in. Below 2200m a 2cm crust is present halfway down the snowpack from November 10.
