Points saillants

The drought continues.  Watch for lens of hard slabs in Alpine terrain and isolated areas at treeline.  If you can call in a favour with Ullr now is the time!  Put some pink zinc on the dog and burn your 80's one piece as an offering!

    30-40cm thick windslabs are being encountered on north to southeast aspects at treeline and above. These slabs are surrounded by thin weak facetted snowpack areas.  Expect wide propagations due to the hard nature of these slabs. 

Weather Forecast

Nothing much is changing out there except we are loosing our bluebird days!  Cloudy conditions will prevail over the next couple of days and we may see up to 5cm of new snow. 

Avalanche Summary

No new natural avalanche observations.

Snowpack Summary

A dusting of snow came down throughout the day on Wednesday.  Emphasis on dusting...  Otherwise not much is changing.  Lens of hard slabs can be found in Alpine terrain and in all lee features.
