Regions

Dogtooth, East Purcell.

Watch for pockets of unstable wind slab in isolated lee terrain features at upper elevations.

Confidence

Moderate

  • We are uncertain about forecast snowfall amounts.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported.

If you are heading into the backcountry, please share your observations with the Mountain Information Network.

Snowpack Summary

5 cm of new snow may fall on surface hoar in sheltered areas or crust on solar aspects, while adding to soft wind slabs in lee features at upper elevations.

Below this, depending on aspect and elevation, the top 30 cm may contain one or two layers of crust, facet and/or surface hoar formed in late January and early February.

The mid and lower snowpack is generally well settled, with no significant concerns.

Weather Summary

Friday Night
Partly cloudy. 1 to 2 cm of snow. 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -6 °C.

Saturday
Mostly cloudy. 1 to 3 cm of snow. 30 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -6 °C.

Sunday
Mostly sunny. 1 to 3 cm of snow. 30 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -8 °C.

Monday
Mix of sun and clouds. 1 to 3 cm of snow. 30 km/h south ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -9 °C.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Be careful with wind-loaded pockets, especially near ridge crests and rollovers.

Problems

Wind Slabs

Wind Slab avalanches are the release of a cohesive layer of snow (a slab) formed by the wind. Wind typically transports snow from the upwind sides of terrain features and deposits snow on the downwind side. Wind slabs are often smooth and rounded and sometimes sound hollow, and can range from soft to hard. Wind slabs that form over a persistent weak layer (surface hoar, depth hoar, or near-surface facets) may be termed Persistent Slabs or may develop into Persistent Slabs.
