Avalanche Forecast
Regions: Glacier.
Weather Forecast
A mix of sun and cloud today with isolated flurries. Freezing levels should remain below 1700m and winds will be moderate from the SW. More of the same for Mon and Tues, then a dramatic warm-up on Wed-Thurs with freezing levels rising to 3000+m and light precipitation.
Snowpack Summary
High elevation N aspects still hold a winter snowpack with surface windslab that may be sensitive to human triggering given the right location. On all other aspects, expect temperature and sun crusts until daytime warming softens the surface. The snowpack is isothermal below these surface crusts at tree-line and below tree-line elevations.
Avalanche Summary
No new activity has been observed. Glide cracks continue to widen with the Spring warming and are very difficult to predict when they will fail.
