With the strong wind and warm temps we suspect rapid change in the snowpack. There will be wind slabs that have formed all elevations, possible larger loads on lee features. Caution traveling in thin to thick snow covered areas.
Watch overhead hazards when skiing and ice climbing there has been a lot of transport of snow overt the past few days.
Summary
Early Season Comment
Early Season Message
Insufficient observations exist to reliably rate the avalanche danger. Expect shallow snow cover with thinly buried rocks and trees just beneath the surface. Avalanche danger often concentrates in gullies and other deposition areas, where wind slabs may bond poorly to a weak underlying base. Deeper snow usually exists at higher elevations. For information on local conditions, watch for Mountain Information Network reports in your region. - https://www.avalanche.ca/mountain-information-network
