Field.
Ice climbs in the Field area are thin and in the process of forming, with not much to climb yet; what looks climbable looks hard. Click here for photos of the climbs taken on Wednesday. The snowpack is very shallow with no evidence of avalanches in the gullies yet.
No new avalanches observed or reported.
Wind effect exists in the alpine and into treeline. The thin snowpack is quickly facetting with the cool temperatures and surface hoar growth is occurring. 50-80 cm of total snow at treeline throughout the region, with up to 120 cm in loaded alpine features. Below treeline, the snowpack is generally below the threshold for avalanches.
An arctic front passed through the region on Wednesday leaving a trace of new snow behind. In its wake, expect clear, calm and cold temperatures for a few days with lows below -20 and gradual warming towards the weekend.
