No new avalanches have been reported.

Snowpack Summary

Information coming from this region has been extremely limited; however, reports suggest there is about a metre of snow at upper treeline elevations. Terrain below treeline is reported to be below threshold for avalanche activity.Modest storm accumulations from early in the week have most likely gained considerable strength.A few crusts may be found deeper in the snowpack, although observers are not identifying them as layers of concern at this time.
