Welcome to winter! As we begin our forecasting season we are working with very limited field data. If you`ve been playing in the snow, please tell us what you`ve seen by sending your observations to
[email protected] reports indicate there is currently not enough snow to ski or ride at treeline and below. Pockets of skiable terrain exist in the alpine, although access to these areas will likely be a challenge and many early season hazards exist. These pockets of high elevation terrain are the areas most likely to have an avalanche problem, especially as the new slab deepens with ongoing snowfall. Any new snow, which may exist as a wind slab, may have a poor bond with old surfaces (crusts, facets) which formed during the recent dry spell.
