Confidence

Moderate

  • We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.
  • We are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations.

Avalanche Summary

No avalanches have been reported since Monday, observations are very limited in the region right now.

Snowpack Summary

A thin crust will exist early in the morning but it will break down quickly on sun exposed slopes and at lower elevations. The snow below is likely wet.

A thick crust can be found down 5 to 25 cm at treeline and above. The snowpack below this crust is well settled and strong.

At low elevations the snowpack is disappearing quickly. Where snow remains it is isothermal.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Back off slopes as the surface becomes moist or wet with rising temperatures.
  • Keep in mind that the high density of wet avalanches can make them destructive.
