No new avalanches were observed along the Spray corridor.

Snowpack Summary

Widespread wind slabs in the alpine and into tree line. The very strong winds over the last 2 days might just lay down another slab if there is any snow left to transport. The cornices are large for this time of year.

Terrain and Travel

  • Be careful with wind slabs, especially in steep, unsupported and/or convex terrain features.
  • Avoid areas where the snow feels stiff and/or slabby.
