In sintesi

The majority of the terrain along the Skyline has a MODERATE avalanche danger. However, a CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger still exists in the upper elevation north through east facing slopes. These are areas that are holding old weak sugar snow deeper in the pack which is likely to collapse and cause an avalanche where the recent wind has drifted snow onto these slopes.

    The deeper buried persistent weak layers are adjusting to the new snow load from over the last week. They have gained strength and look good in some locations. However, I suspect in many areas the snowpack is unstable still. I am hopeful that our snowpack is starting to turn the corner to a more stable state. Hopefully this is more than just wishful thinking on my part. That said, I will need to see more widespread evidence of strengthening and less avalanche activity before I'm willing to get onto steep slopes.

    The newest snow may be sensitive to the warming temperatures and direct sun on southerly slopes in the mid and lower elevations. Wet loose natural avalanches may release although my guess is this will be a fairly minor issue.

Snow and Weather

It looks like another nice day today with high temperatures in the mountains around 20 degrees. We'll see storms moving in late Wednesday night which could bring a substantial amount of snow.
