Coquihalla, Manning, Skagit.
Use normal caution on slopes that hold enough snow to avalanche.
Travel with caution. Stumps, rocks, crusts, and heavy, grabby snow are likely bigger hazards than avalanches right now.
No recent avalanches have been reported in this region.
If you do head into the backcountry please consider submitting observations and/or photos on the Mountain Information Network.
The snow surface is moist at treeline and below. In the alpine, you are likely to find a frozen surface crust.
The mid and lower snowpack is made up of a series of crusts and rounded grains. The snowpack is generally well consolidated.
Overall, the snow depth remains shallow, especially on south facing slopes. Early season hazards are just below the surface.
