In sintesi

Freezing levels are going to rise over the next few days. Luckily our forecast shows mostly cloud cover, but if that changes watch the solar aspects.

    • Sotto il limite del bosco

    In most places the bottom of the snowpack is depth hoar. Thin areas around alpine features should still be treated with caution. Be sure to enter your line in supported terrain with a thick snowpack.

Confidence

Good

Weather Forecast

The winds will continue to haul overnight. Tomorrow will see them rise with gusts up to 85km/hr from the west. The ambient temperature will rise to -4, but the wind will make it feel much cooler. Some flurries tomorrow with a mostly cloudy sky.

Avalanche Summary

no activity today

Snowpack Summary

Once again there was little change today. The alpine has had significant wind action that has stripped most of the available snow. Again, we're left with breakable hardslab on almost all aspects. Open areas at treeline have also seen widespread wind effect that has done a good job of removing any available snow. The north winds from a few days ago have managed to sneak into the nooks and crannies that held decent skiing. Very sheltered and shaded areas at treeline with a SE aspect might still hold snow.
