In sintesi

A widespread surface crust is creating stable avalanche conditions, but is making travel challenging.

Problemi valanghivi

  • Persistent Slabs

    • Alta quota
    • Limite del bosco
    • Sotto il limite del bosco
    Probabilità

    In high alpine terrain where the surface crust may not exist or be unsupportive, persistent weak layers may remain human-triggerable.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • When a thick, melt-freeze surface crust is present, avalanche activity is unlikely.
  • Carefully evaluate big/extreme terrain features before committing to them, it's not full "go" time yet.
  • Expect shallow snow cover that barely covers ground roughness.

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanche activity has been reported.

Snowpack Summary

Trace amounts of dry snow have begun to accumulate atop a widespread hard crust. In general, the crust is strong and supportive to travel on.

In the midpack, a weak facet layer persists, but has become unlikely to trigger with a supportive crust above.

Areas in the east of the region are largely characterized by a shallow and faceted snowpack.
