Avalanche Forecast

Fair - Due to the number of field observations

The next three days look dry, cool and sunny, with the freezing level at valley bottom. There is the possibility of a layer of warm air forming at ridge top on Sunday. Some precipitation may arrive late Monday. Check tomorrow for updates.The exception could be east slopes of the Rockies, where a tongue of warm air may push in and create some localised precipitation through the weekend. Confidence is low in the extent and effect of this warming.For more details check out avalanche.ca/weather .

No recent avalanches have been reported. There was a natural avalanche cycle in the alpine in response to last weekend's storm.

So far, we only have limited information from the field. Submit yours to the MIN! Initial reports suggest that there is enough snow on the ground above about 1700 m for avalanches to occur. A 7 cm thick crust which formed with rain to around 1950 m last weekend may be a layer to watch as the season progresses.
