In sintesi

Precipitation tapers but freezing levels are rising. Continue to assess surface snow as you travel.

Greatest concern is for higher elevations where recent storm snow is still adjusting.

    Wet avalanches remain possible with freezing levels remaining elevated or rising.

    Triggering a wet loose avalanche is more likely where surface snow has not yet been impacted by above freezing temperatures.

Confidence

Moderate

  • We are uncertain due to variable freezing levels.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches have been reported, but observations remain limited. Avalanches are most likely at higher elevations where rain may find drier snow to affect.

Snowpack Summary

Rain has saturated the upper snowpack, with moist surface snow possible above 1500 m. The recent snow overlies a hard crust. The mid/lower snowpack is generally well settled and strong.

Average treeline snow depth is 70 to 175 cm, and the snowpack tapers rapidly with elevation.

Weather Summary

Cloudy. 1 to 2 mm of rain at treeline. 10 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 3 °C. Freezing level 2000 m.

Tuesday
Mix of sun and clouds. 30 km/h south ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 5 °C. Freezing level 2500 m.

Wednesday
Mix of sun and clouds. 1 to 2 mm of rain at treeline. 40 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 8 °C. Freezing level 2900 m.

Thursday
Sunny. 20 km/h southwest ridgetop wind. Treeline temperature 10 °C. Freezing level 3100 m.

Terrain and Travel Advice

  • A moist or wet snow surface, pinwheeling, and natural avalanches are all indicators of a weakening snowpack.
  • Loose avalanches may start small, but they can grow and push you into dangerous terrain.
  • Keep in mind that the high density of wet avalanches can make them destructive.
