Regions

Sea To Sky, Brandywine, Garibaldi, Homathko, Powell River, Spearhead, Tantalus.

Low avalanche danger is often a good time to venture into more complex terrain.

However, under current conditions, falling down steep slopes is a significant hazard.

Confidence

High

  • We are confident due to a stable weather pattern.

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanches have been reported.

Snowpack Summary

A hard surface crust extends to mountain top on all aspects and elevations. The crust may break down during daytime warming.

Cornices are reported to be large and looming. Be mindful of them overhead or when traveling on ridgetops.

Otherwise, the snowpack is well consolidated, with multiple crusts and rounded grains, with no additional layers of concern.

Sunday
Mix of sun and clouds. 20 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -3 °C. Freezing level valley bottom.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
  • A hard crust on the snow surface will help strengthen the snowpack, but may cause tough travel conditions.
  • Pay attention to cornices and give them a wide berth when traveling on or below ridges.
  • The snowpack is generally stable; it may be appropriate to step out into more complex terrain.
