Regions

Long Range Mountains, Corner Brook, Gros Morne, Northern Peninsula.

Avoid alpine terrain. The best and safest riding will be in sheltered areas in the trees.

The potential for human-triggered avalanches is likely to persist for several days.

Confidence

Low

  • We are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported, but information is limited.

Consider posting a report if you're in the backcountry.

Snowpack Summary

Anywhere from 15 to 30 cm of snow fell on Friday night into Saturday and is being redistributed into lee features.

Underneath all the soft, new snow from this week which totals around 40 to 50 cm, the mid and lower snowpack consists of several, thick crusts that are not currently a concern.

Snowpack depth is estimated to be 100 to 150 cm.

Weather Summary

Saturday Night

Mostly cloudy. 3 to 5 cm of snow, 60 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -17 °C.

Sunday

Mostly cloudy. 3 cm of snow. 60 km/h west ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -18 °C.

Monday

Mostly cloudy. 2 cm of snow. 50 km/h northwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -18 °C.

Tuesday

Mostly cloudy. 10 to 15 cm of snow. 50 to 60 km/h northeast ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature -15 °C.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Avoid lee and cross-loaded slopes in the alpine.
  • Watch for newly formed and reactive wind slabs as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Seek out sheltered terrain where new snow hasn't been affected by wind.

Problems

Wind Slabs

Wind Slab avalanches are the release of a cohesive layer of snow (a slab) formed by the wind. Wind typically transports snow from the upwind sides of terrain features and deposits snow on the downwind side. Wind slabs are often smooth and rounded and sometimes sound hollow, and can range from soft to hard. Wind slabs that form over a persistent weak layer (surface hoar, depth hoar, or near-surface facets) may be termed Persistent Slabs or may develop into Persistent Slabs.
