In sintesi

Incoming snowfall starting Thurs will elevate the danger rating. Today, 2 skiers remotely triggered a size 2.5 avalanche in the back-country near Lake Louise. This event is a reminder that the current conditions can still produce large avalanches.

    At a test plot West of the divide the Feb 14 Surface hoar is buried 110cm. A deep tap test produced no result on this layer. However, the chance of triggering will increase in thinner areas, and large avalanches are still possible.
