There is very little information available for this region at this time. The few reports we have suggest there is little snow across the region. I have removed the Danger ratings until we get more information.

Avalanche Summary
The parts of this region that traditionally get the most snow are reporting that their snowpack is still very shallow and that avalanches are unlikely due to lack of snow.
Snowpack Summary
The few reports we have received suggest there is little snow across the region. One operator is reporting 50cms of snow at 1100m. The region has seen its fair share of wind in the past week and spatial variability in snow depth likely exists. By and large, most of the region is below threshold except for where the wind may have re-distributed snow into pockets of wind slabs. Keep in mind these pockets of snow that may be enticing to ride are the same slopes that may be the most likely to slide.
