Weather Forecast

Continued warm temperatures are expected for the next several days. Friday should bring some light snowfall combined with strong westerly winds.

Snowpack Summary

Warm temperatures are helping settle the snowpack and heal some of the facetting that has occurred over the past several weeks of cooler weather. The snowpack is highly variable throughout the region ranging from mostly weak, un-supportive facets in the south to a more settled snowpack that still supports skier travel further north.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported in the forecast zone.

Confidence

Intensity of incoming weather systems is uncertain on Friday
