In sintesi

We are in Spring Conditions. Avalanches are still possible.

Up to 25 cm of storm snow will see increasing solar radiation and decreasing cloud cover. Look out for signs of solar warming and wet loose activity as the forecast period progresses.

    A warming trend with decreasing cloud cover will make this problem more prevalent as the forecast period progresses.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Make observations and continually assess conditions as you travel.
  • Limit exposure to steep, sun exposed slopes, especially when the solar radiation is strong.
  • Rocks will heat up with daytime warming and may become trigger points for loose wet avalanches.

Avalanche Summary

A few small loose avalanches observed, though field observations have been limited.

Snowpack Summary

10-25 cm of storm snow is quickly settling. Below it sits a series of melt forms and melt freeze crusts. The atmospheric river crust is down 50-70 cm. The mid and lower snowpack are well settled.
