Points saillants

The chance continues for backcountry riders and skiers to trigger slab avalanches to three foot depths in steep avalanche terrain. Avalanches below 7500 feet are unlikely.

    Above 7,500 feet, persistent slabs lie upon weak, faceted snow and sun crusts formed during the January dry period. There is a high degree of spatial variability associated with these weak layers, which makes it difficult to predict how a slope will react to the presence of skiers or riders. Evaluate the snow and terrain carefully, and identify features of concern. These slabs could be triggered by backcountry travelers in steep, avalanche prone terrain with depths up to three feet.

Avalanche Discussion

( Discussion is generated from the previous day's afternoon forecast. )Expect partly cloudy to mostly clear skies on Monday. Northerly flow will bring cold temperate with overnight lows in the mountains near zero degrees. Daytime highs will be in the low teens. Northerly ridetop winds will range from 5 to 15 miles per hour.The General Avalanche Hazard is expected to be MODERATE on Monday. Backcountry travelers venturing into steep, avalanche prone terrain could trigger slides up to four feet deep. The persistent weak layers from January underlying these slabs have a high degree of spatial variability. In some areas, these weak layers have strengthened, but that is not the case everywhere. Evaluate the snow and terrain carefully, and identify features of concern.
