Regions

Glacier.

Fresh snow and wind continues to build touchy slabs in all open terrain. If you do venture out, stick to low angle and supported terrain.

Travel at lower elevations remains difficult—expect all kinds of early-season hazards to be hiding just below the surface.

Confidence

Moderate

Avalanche Summary

A field team was easily able to ski cut avalanches up to size 1.5, in steep north facing slopes at treeline on Saturday.

Several natural avalanches were also picked up by our detection network in the the highway corridor on Saturday. These were not visible from road level through the ongoing snowfall.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 30cm of new snow has fallen (with up to 25cm more in the forecast), and is being loaded into lees by moderate to strong SW winds. This storm snow sits on a crust that extends into the alpine.

Early season hazards exist below treeline with a low early season snowpack.

Weather Summary

A winter storm has arrived.

Tonight: Snow. 10-15cm Alpine low -3°C. Freezing Level (FZL) 1500m. Ridgetop Wind mod-strong SW.

Sun: Snow. 10-15cm. Alpine high -3°C. FZL 1700m. Gusty mod SW wind.

Mon: Isolated flurries/Sunny periods. Low -12 °C, High -6 °C. FZL 1300m. Light W wind.

Tue: Sunny periods. Low -13 °C, High -10 °C. FZL 600m. Light S wind.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Make conservative terrain choices and avoid overhead hazard.
  • Avoid lee and cross-loaded slopes at alpine and treeline elevations.

Problems

Storm Slabs

Storm Slab avalanches are the release of a cohesive layer (a slab) of new snow that breaks within new snow or on the old snow surface. Storm-slabs typically last between a few hours and few days (following snowfall). Storm-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.
