Regions

Vancouver Island, East Island, North Island, South Island, West Island.

Small amounts of snow may bury early season hazards at high elevations. If you venture up to the snow, watch for stumps, creeks and rocks lurking below the surface.

Confidence

Moderate

Avalanche Summary

No avalanches have been reported yet this season. With thin snow coverage, any activity would be limited to isolated slopes where there’s enough snow to cover rocks and ground roughness.

If you head into the mountains, please share any observations or photos on the MIN.

Snowpack Summary

Snow depth varies rapidly with elevation. There is no snow below 1000 m, about 20–40 cm at treeline, and up to 80 cm in the high alpine. Snow surfaces will moisten with Monday's rain, and some areas may see a few cm's of fresh snow. Overall, the snowpack is strong and well-bonded.

Use caution when travelling, early-season hazards are prevalent.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • If it's deep enough to ride, it's deep enough to slide (avalanche).
  • Use caution above cliffs and terrain traps where even small avalanches may have severe consequences.
  • Be cautious of buried obstacles, especially below treeline.
