In sintesi
Conditions are generally safe and large avalanches are unlikely. The danger will rise this evening as a strong storm impacts the region.
Avalanche Discussion
The snowpack is generally stable, and avalanches are unlikely. Keep these potential hazards in mind if you're planning to play in very steep terrain:
- Wind Slabs: Isolated wind slabs formed several days ago. The slabs are weathered and generally difficult to trigger, but they deserve respect in extreme terrain.
- Cornices: There are monster cornices out there and many are sagging due to recent warm temperatures. Give them a wide berth and minimize your time directly below them.
Tonight's storm will sharply increase the danger. Current weather models predict low elevation rain overnight and 8-15" of snow in the mountains by tomorrow afternoon. Be prepared to dial back your terrain choices as the odds of natural and human-triggered avalanches increase.
