In sintesi

We are stopping regular bulletins at this time. Pay close attention to Freezing levels, solar radiation and new precipitation (either as rain or snow) at this time of year as avalanche danger has lots of variables. Follow the link for more details. Thanks for all the Min reports and have a wonderful spring/ summer!

    This problem is highly related to sun and rain, as well as aspect and elevation. Pay close attention to freezing levels and direct solar input. If the sun is out or rain is falling, this is likely a good time to adjust your plans.

Confidence

No Rating

  • We are uncertain due to rapidly changing freezing levels.

Avalanche Summary

No notable avalanches reported, Wet loose in the afternoon with solar input is expected and with high freezing levels we may see more notable avalanche activity if the freeze is poor.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 15 cm recent snow will be preserved on high North aspects, while on solar aspects it will be going through the standard melt freeze cycle.

Spring is here so danger can rapidly fluctuate throughout the day. Follow the link in the bulletin headline for a more detailed explanation.

Weather Summary

A mix of sun and cloud with a clearing trend starting mid week. Expect freezing levels to rise to mountain top and winds on the lower end. Spring diurnal weather conditions

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Avalanche danger will rapidly increase if snow switches to rain.
  • Avoid exposure to overhead hazards when solar radiation is strong.
  • A moist or wet snow surface, pinwheeling, and natural avalanches are all indicators of a weakening snowpack.
  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation and sun exposure.
