Avalanche Summary
So far this season there has been insufficient snow on the ground to produce avalanches. Watch for high elevation areas where recent storms have delivered enough snow to cover the rocks and shrubs.
Snowpack Summary
Recent storms delivered more rain than snow to the South Coast mountains. As a result there are just thin patches of wet snow around the peaks of the North Shore mountains (20-30 cm deep). We don't have any recent observations from higher peaks in the region, but there's potentially enough snow to produce avalanches in some terrain above 1500 m.
