Travel early in the day to take advantage of the supportive melt freeze crust and be off solar slopes by mid-day. Good ski conditions can be found on sheltered north facing treeline aspects
Summary
Weather Forecast
High cloud will be accompanied by light NW winds. The freezing level is again expected to reach 2500m on Sunday.
Snowpack Summary
A 5 to 10 cm melt freeze crust on solar aspects below treeline appears to be maintaining its strength until mid afternoon. Isothermal conditions exist on shallow south facing slopes up to treeline. North facing treeline and the alpine snowpack are relatively stable with a well settled mid-pack bridging basal facets.
Avalanche Summary
The wet loose avalanche cycle continues on steep solar aspects from treeline to valley bottom beginning by mid-afternoon. A large (size 3) slab avalanche on a steep rocky west facing alpine slope ran full path to ground across from the Parker Slabs, likely a solar trigger. The alpine is waking up on south to west aspects!
Confidence
The weather pattern is stable on Sunday
