Avalanche danger
Highlights
The snowpack is mostly stable. Due to the warm temperatures humans who venture into extreme terrain may be able to trigger isolated pockets of hard wind slab up a foot deep. Wet loose slides are also a potential problem on very steep sunlit slopes.
Avalanche Discussion
( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )An approaching cold front is forecast to past through the region on Wednesday night. This could bring several inches of new snow to the higher elevations and a trace to an inch to the valleys. On Wednesday, expect increasing clouds with temperatures rising into the 30s in a warm southwest flow ahead of this front. The general avalanche hazard is expected to be LOW. Some potential may persist at the higher elevations for humans in extreme terrain to trigger shallow pockets of hard wind slab up to 18 inches deep.
