Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches were reported on Sunday, however, there is currently very limited data for this region. Please report your observations to the Mountain Information Network(MIN).

Snowpack Summary

Observations are very limited in this region. Up to 40 cm of recent snow has created storm slabs at alpine and treeline elevations. Expect to find the mid-November crust down 60-80 cm. Average snowpack depths in the alpine are 110-150 cm with generally less snow in the southern parts of the region. Early season hazards such as stumps, rocks, and open creeks remain the primary concern below treeline.
