Snowpack Summary
While there is some snow in the Alpine, the key word is some! We are still below threshold in most areas and really the only place there is snow is in the Alpine.
Gullies or ridgelines are the places where snow will slowly accumulate so keep an eye on terrain as you travel through it.
Weather Summary
Winter is starting to arrive up high! Check the forecasts often and be aware that as snow starts to accumulate, avalanche potential will slowly begin to increase. Its also good to be thinking about large weather events that may be an issue down the road into winter. These may include rain events, or similar.
