Snowpack Summary

Widespread wind slabs in the alpine from 10-40cm with some areas having a 10cm hard wind slab. The January 30 interface(crust/facets/surface hoar) is present about 20-40cm down but mostly producing hard test results which were non-planar. The midpack is supportive in most places, but in rocky areas it has become very weak and "punchy" while walking/sking.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Carefully evaluate big and steep terrain features before committing to them.
  • Be careful as you transition into wind-affected terrain.
  • Avoid steep terrain that is rocky and thin.
