Avalanche Summary

There has been no avalanche activity reported in the past few days.

Snowpack Summary

Previous strong to extreme winds have scoured exposed terrain on all aspects at treeline and alpine elevations. At treeline and below, a layer of surface hoar has formed on all aspects. Ongoing cold temperatures have softened the surface of wind effected terrain in many areas. In sheltered terrain, 10 to 40 cm of faceted snow overlies a surface hoar layer from late January.

Another layer of surface hoar was buried near the middle of January and can be found 30 to 60 cm deep. This layer is currently unreactive.

A layer of facets on top of a crust from early December is buried 100 to 200 cm deep. This layer is generally not a concern in this region.
