Avalanche Forecast

High - Stable weather pattern.

Daytime solar input will weaken surface layers and fragile cornices. Avoid solar aspects later in the day and give cornices a wide berth above and below. As always, avoid exposure to terrain traps, as even a small avalanche could have large consequences.

No new avalanches observed.

Up to 10cm of new snow from last week in the alpine, with lesser amounts below. All aspects below 1500m and solar aspects above have experienced daily melt freeze cycles. Crusts have been breaking down in the late morning or early afternoon. Snowpack below surface layers is well settled. Cornices in exposed ridgetop terrain have continued to grow.

Fairly benign weather recently. Light flurries above 1200m with accumulations up to 10cm. Winds have been light from the SE mainly. Freezing levels fluctuating from sea level up to 1600m with daytime warming.
