Points saillants

Overall the avalanche danger is generally LOW. Here is what you should pay attention to today:

  1. Watch for any cracking within the new snow which indicates instability
  2. If the sun pops out unexpectedly, the new snow may become damp and start producing wet snow avalanches. Move off and out from under steep slopes if the new snow starts getting wet and gloppy.

    The new snow seems to be well behaved from what I saw during my travel on Friday. However, I didn't cover all that much ground. Evaluate the new snow by keeping an eye out for any cracking around your skis or machine. Stop occasionally to dig into the new snow with your hands and see if you can initiate any cracking. Again, the new snow seems mostly stable but if there is any avalanche activity today, you'll find it in the newest layers of snow in the upper elevations which received the most over the last three days.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions: About 4 more inches of snow fell in the last 24 hours. This brings totals up to about 10 inches or a bit more in some locations since Wednesday. It seems to me that the southern and central parts of the range faired the best with snowfall with a little less on the northern end. Temperatures dipped into the teens overnight and southerly wind remains quite light.

Mountain Weather: We'll see clouds over the mountains today with another chance for snowfall late today which should bring a trace to a couple of inches of new snow. Southerly or southeast wind will remain light. We'll have a break on Sunday although we may see clouds lingering over the mountains. Next week brings more chances for snow with the next system moving through on Monday which should bring a few more inches of snow.
