Avalanche Forecast

Fair - Due to the number of field observations

Mostly clear skies are expected for the forecast period as a ridge of high pressure becomes rooted over the south coast. Winds should be mostly light from the west. Freezing levels will climb to about 2600m throughout Saturday remaining elevated until at least Monday.

No recent avalanche activity has been reported.

Information coming from this region has been extremely limited; however, reports suggest there is about 70cm of snow at 1600m in the Duffey Lake area and about 120cm at the same elevation on the Coquihalla. Terrain below treeline is reported to be below threshold for avalanche activity.Modest storm accumulations from early in the week have most likely gained considerable strength.In a neighboring region, a few crusts exist deeper in the snowpack, although observers are not identifying them as layers of concern at this time.
