With a limited early-season snowpack, there are not many reports from the backcountry. There have been no recent reports of avalanches.

Heavy rain on Sunday night and into Monday will continue to dwindle a 15 to 50 cm, rain-soaked snowpack. Below 1000 m, there is no snow at all.
This shallow snowpack has made for challenging travel and access to most skiing/riding areas. That being said, some are still able to get out there, check out this MIN report
