Chic-Choc Mountains, Chic-Chocs.
Travel in the mountains may be difficult on Tuesday due to the formation of a new surface melt-freeze crust. On solar aspects, the surface snow may soften in the afternoon under the effect of solar radiation.
No new avalanches have been reported or observed.
If you head into the backcountry, thanks for sharing your observations on the Mountain Information Network (MIN).
A widespread melt-freeze crust will form Tuesday morning in the mountains. A light layer of dry snow may accumulate on top of this crust. Recent rain and warm temperatures have significantly reduced the snowpack and exposed many surface obstacles.
At mid-elevation, the average snowpack depth is around 150 cm.
