    Storm slabs and wind slabs may be triggered naturally or by the weight of a person. A surface slab may be able to step down and trigger a deeper weak layer.

Confidence

Poor - Due to the number of field observations

Weather Forecast

Temperatures should start to fall on Friday and get progressively cooler through the weekend. Around 15cm of snow is expected overnight Thursday/Friday, with the snow line gradually lowering to about 1300 m. Moderate to strong SW winds on Friday become light for the weekend.

Avalanche Summary

No new reports of avalanches. Please let us know what you're seeing out there. Submit your observations to the Mountain Information Network.

Snowpack Summary

Conditions in the Coquihalla area are quite different to the Duffey region. Reports from the Coquihalla suggest there's less than 1 m of snow in most avalanche areas with a relatively simple, recently rain-soaked, snowpack. Around the Duffey, we have limited observations, but it's expected that fresh storm and wind slabs exist and that these may be overloading snowpack weaknesses formed in November.
