    Recent low density snow has buried surface wind slabs. Although they are hard to trigger at the moment, they are hidden. Keep this in mind when exploring steeper alpine features. Also, ski conditions in the alpine today resembled dust on 'sastrugie'.

Weather Forecast

Light flurries, light wind and seasonal temperatures are expected for the next few days. Because of this, expect little change to the danger rating.

Snowpack Summary

Convective flurries deposited up to 20cm of low density storm snow in the lake Louise area last night. In the alpine, this new snow overlies hard wind slabs, created from the strong to extreme wind events over the last week. Other areas to watch are

Avalanche Summary

Some small point release avalanches in the Lake Louise back country today. Not bigger than size 1. Otherwise nothing reported or observed.

Confidence
