Summer-like weather will dominate this week. With light winds and high temperatures, you'll be seeking out summery activities! Keep in mind that upper reaches of hiking trails are still snowbound, and travel through avalanche runout zones.
Summary
Weather Forecast
A real heat wave is forecast, with the freezing level climbing steadily on Monday, to hover around 3800m for Tuesday and Wednesday. That's about as high as the top of Mt Robson! Mainly sunny skies and light winds don't promise much cooling, although on the clearest nights we could get some very temporary surface crust recovery.
Snowpack Summary
The snowpack is isothermal (punchy and wet to ground). Surface and near-surface Crusts may recover briefly after cool, clear nights, but will rapidly break down with the new day. North aspects in the alpine may be an exception, where 15cm of recently fallen snow will probably be moist, overlying a crust. Low, sunny slopes in the East are dry.
Avalanche Summary
Numerous small (Size 1 - 1.5) Loose Wet avalanches were observed on Friday and Saturday, as 20cm of cold storm snow became moist. A Size 1 cornice fall was observed on Sunday morning.
