In sintesi

Not a lot of change in the last while. The warm temps have helped with the loose dry avalanches. Still LOTS of early season hazards out there!! The next few days will be a  good time to swap the skis for the ice axes.

    Isolated windslabs still exist in the alpine. Climbers should watch for pockets of wind slab. If a slope sounds hollow, or "drums" as you walk on it, treat it with caution.

Confidence

Good

Weather Forecast

Flurries are forecasted for tomorrow. Amounts are very small and likely insignificant. In a nut shell, the next few days will be similar to today. Warm, moderate winds in the alpine and trace precipitation.

Avalanche Summary

nothing new

Snowpack Summary

A few flurries have been added to the existing snowpack, but unfortunately nothing significant. The snowpack is still feeling the effects of the cold spell and has not gained much strength. The upper 10-20 cm's is weak and sugary. The crust has not changed either. Its still apparent down 20-30 at most elevations/aspects.  The overall depth of snow now sits at 35cm's at 2200m. On the positive side, the surface hoar that was growing last week has broken down.
