Snowpack Summary
The snowpack in the alpine is starting to increase and some alpine areas have enough snow for avalanches to occur. Wind-loaded slopes and steep, narrow gullies are the highest concern.
On glaciers, expect crevasses to be hidden by thin bridges of wind-blown snow. Rope up, and use a probe to ensure that you are traveling on solid glacial ice.
Avalanche Summary
Occasional reports of natural avalanches up to size 2 in steep alpine terrain have been observed during strong wind and storm events.
The rough ground covered is not yet buried. Going for a ride, even in a small avalanche, is likely to have serious consequences this time of year.
