Regions: Olympics.

Happy New Year! While recently formed wind slabs should continue to heal, you may still find lingering areas of shallow wind slabs on steep wind-loaded slopes near and above treeline on New Year's Day. We have no direct snowpack or avalanche observations from this area. Take the time to evaluate conditions for yourself before entering avalanche terrain.

Avalanche and Snowpack Discussion

We have not had any direct snowpack observations from the Hurricane Ridge area in over 2 weeks. With greater uncertainty, extra caution is needed while making terrain selections.

Forecast schedule

For the 2018-19 winter season, avalanche hazard ratings will be issued for the Olympics Friday through Sunday and during holidays.

General snowpack and weather summaries will be available on days that the Hurricane Ridge road is closed.
