Snowpack Summary

A widespread crust can be found on all aspects as high as the peaks on all aspects except pure north. Dry snow can be found on northern aspects above 2300m but there is also some wind affect in these areas.

A few cornices collapses have been observed over the past few days but these did not trigger slabs on underlying slopes.

Be sure to check the quality of the freeze overnight before you go! Stability will change throughout the day as the conditions warm up.

Weather Summary

Freezing levels are expected to be 2300m on Sunday with a trace of new snow overnight and into Sunday. Winds are forecast to be light overnight with cloud cover limiting the amount or radiation re-freezing.

More details can be found in the Mountain Weather Forecast.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • Be alert to conditions that change with elevation and sun exposure.
  • Avoid steep, sun-exposed slopes when the air temperature is warm or when solar radiation is strong.
  • Avalanche activity is unlikely when a thick melt-freeze crust is present on the snow surface.
