Isolated small avalanches are still possible at low danger.
Remain cautious in extreme and high-consequence terrain.
Dry loose avalanches are possible in steep terrain where the snow is powdery and unconsolidated. Use appropriate sluff management techniques.
On Saturday, there were numerous, small dry loose avalanches reported.
5 to 10 cm of recent snow may be covering a layer of surface hoar in sheltered areas, or a hard sun-crust on sunny slopes.
Exposed terrain in the alpine and treeline is generally wind-affected. In sheltered terrain, 10 to 40 cm of faceted snow overlies a weak layer from late January. This layer consists of a crust on sun-exposed slopes, and facets and surface hoar on all other aspects.
A weak layer of facets from early December is buried 60 to 120 cm. The base of the snowpack consists of a thick crust with facets or depth hoar in many areas.
