Snowpack Summary

At this point we have received no snowpack data from the region. Reports suggest that in many areas the snowpack is thin at best.Significant snowpack variability is likely to exist throughout the region. I would suggest checking out the Northwest Coastal Avalanche Bulletin for an idea of what may be happening in some of the deeper snowpack areas.
