Weather Forecast

Chinook conditions will prevail for a few more days.  Expect no new snow, warm temps and windy conditions.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanche activity over the past 24hrs.

Snowpack Summary

Snowpack continues to settle under the more seasonal conditions.  Strong winds have created widespread windslabs in alpine terrain and isolated areas at treeline.  These slabs are overlying a weak facetted base that has been collapsing easily under a skiers weight.  In alpine locations, the 1027 crust can still be found 10-20cm of the ground.
