    Storm snow and strong wind are forming reactive slabs. Expect the largest and most reactive slabs in wind affected terrain.

Confidence

Moderate

  • Uncertainty is due to the limited number of field observations.
  • Uncertainty is due to how the snowpack will react to the forecast weather.

Avalanche Summary

Numerous size 1.5 to 2 avalanches were reported on Wednesday but details are limited. In general, observations are limited in this region.

If you're headed into the backcountry please consider filling out a Mountain Information Network report.

Snowpack Summary

An additional 20 to 30 cm of storm snow is expected by Saturday afternoon. This new snow will be accompanied by strong southerly wind, forming deeper deposits in north and east facing features.

A layer of surface hoar is found down around 50 to 100 cm in sheltered treeline features. Below treeline, a crust is found at this interface.

The mid and lower snowpack is well settled with no current layers of concern. Treeline snow depths throughout the region range from 150 cm to 250 cm.
