In sintesi

Monday will hopefully bring some new snow to freshen up the skiing. Until then we'll see little change with the backcountry conditions. Ice climbing, cross country skiing or snowshoeing seem like the way to go for tomorrow.

    Places to watch this layer will be steep slopes with a variable snow depth. Rocky areas, trees with open spacing and crossloaded areas are terrain features that have all produced avalanches in the past week.

Confidence

Good

Weather Forecast

Snow is on the way! Right now it is forecast to arrive overnight on Sunday. Amounts seem to vary, but almost 30cm by Monday afternoon is the current estimate. Until then we're in a holding pattern. Alpine temps will hover around -10, winds moderate out of the NW at ridgetop and the odd flurry passing through.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches observed today

Snowpack Summary

Not a huge amount of change out there. Settlement is ongoing for the entire area right now. The HS sits at 46cm for Burstall parking. The surface hoar that has been making the news lately took a hit with the warm temps. However its still intact, and seems to be more prominent at BTL and TL elevations. It is suspected to be in sheltered areas in the ALP as well. Little to no change with the Oct. crust.
