Avalanche Summary
Skiers triggered small size 1 wind slabs on Friday. More of the same is likely to be found as outflow winds continue. Small loose wet avalanches are possible on sun-warmed slopes.
Snowpack Summary
Strong outflow winds (mainly from the north) have created areas of thin wind slab on lee slopes. On other slopes you may find old wind slabs, a sun crust on all solar aspects, surface hoar, surface facets, and/or up to 5 cm of soft snow over a widespread supportive rain crust in wind sheltered areas. The snowpack is generally strong and well settled. However, large cornices may become weak with daytime warming.
